Part 2 –Two helicopters collide then crash in Flagstaff Arizona
November 12, 2010
It’s the first of July 2008, and I am visiting my son who works at the hospital in Flagstaff. The hospital has a helicopter pad and there are a numerous life flights in and out of this hospital. I was parked nearby the hospital in my motorhome, and I could hear helicopters approaching for a landing on the helicopter pad. It was noisy and I was waiting for the noise to die down because I was expecting an emergency phone call regarding my father’s health when all of a sudden there was an explosion in silence. I knew instinctively there can only be one explanation so I grabbed my new high-definition camera and was at the crash site in less than five minutes. I had no idea what I would find or what to expect. Six people perished that day in the crash, and a nurse who had survived initially died a few days later. The second helicopter further up the hill exploded while first responders were attempting to rescue any survivors injuring three first responders.

New York Plane Crash Flight Instructor Tyler Stanger Memory
September 6, 2010
Tyler Chase Stanger was the the flight instructor of the New York plane crash with Cory Lidle. It deeply dissappointed me when I typed in “Cory Lidle” and hundreds of tribute dedication videos came up. Yet when I typed in “Tyler Stanger”, my search beared no results. 
This video is dedicated to him, his wife, Stephanie(my sister), his daughter, Ashlund, his son, Powell, and his mourning family. If you would like to find out more information on Tyler Stanger, go to stangers.us Don’t worry, no pop-ups or spyware. Now here’s a biography quoted from stangers.us: Friendships were important to Tyler. Cory Lidle was one of those special people to him. Anyone in Tyler’s circle of friends knew there wasn’t anything he wouldn’t do for them or with them. Cory would call Tyler in the middle of the night for answers to the questions on his ground school portion of his flight training. Tyler was happy to get up and come to the phone and teach him in the middle of the night. They traveled together from time to time and their wives became fast friends. Tyler, Stephanie and Ashlund had traveled to New York City to vacation together with Cory and his family. Stephanie shares that they had a marvelous time together and Cory saw a lot of New York that he was unable to see during the baseball season. Tyler also had a Pilatus flight to Ogden, Utah the week before where he had dinner and visited with his brothers, sister and grandparents in Utah. It will remain a special time to remember as …

NTSB Animation of Marlin Air Cessna Citation Accident Investigation Near Milwaukee Wisconsin
January 17, 2010
Video courtesy: NTSB
Washington, D.C. – The National Transportation Safety Board today determined that the probable cause of an aircraft that lost control and impacted water was the pilots’ mismanagement of an abnormal flight control situation through improper actions, including lack of crew coordination, and failing to control airspeed and to prioritize control of the airplane.
On June 4, 2007, about 4:00pm CST, a Cessna Citation 550, N550BP, impacted Lake Michigan shortly after departure from General Mitchell International Airport, Milwaukee, Wisconsin (MKE). The two pilots and four passengers were killed, and the airplane was destroyed. The airplane was being operated by Marlin Air under the provisions of Part 135. The aircraft was carrying a human organ for a transplant operation in Michigan. At the time of the accident, marginal visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the surface, and instrument meteorological conditions prevailed aloft; the flight operated on an instrument flight rules flight plan.
Due to the lack of a data recording system, the Board could not determine the exact nature of the initiating event of the accident. However, the evidence indicated that the two most likely scenarios were a runaway trim or the inadvertent engagement of the autopilot, rather than the yaw damper, at takeoff.
The Board further noted that the event was controllable if the captain had not allowed the airspeed and resulting control forces to increase while he tried to troubleshoot the problem. By allowing the airplane’s airspeed to increase while engaging in poorly coordinated troubleshooting efforts, the pilots allowed an abnormal situation to escalate to an emergency.
Therefore, the NTSB concluded that if the pilots had simply maintained a reduced airspeed while they responded to the situation, the aerodynamic forces on the airplane would not have increased significantly. At reduced airspeeds, the pilots should have been able to maintain control of the airplane long enough to either successfully troubleshoot and resolve the problem or return safely to the airport.
Contributing to the accident were Marlin Air’s operational safety deficiencies, including the inadequate checkrides administered by Marlin Air’s chief pilot/check airman, and the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) failure to detect and correct those deficiencies, which placed a pilot who inadequately emphasized safety in the position of company chief pilot and designated check airman and placed an ill-prepared pilot in the first officer’s seat.
Results from the Board’s investigation indicated that the captain did not adhere to procedures or comply with regulations, and that he routinely abbreviated checklists. Subsequently, the NTSB concluded that the pilots’ lack of discipline, lack of in-depth systems knowledge, and failure to adhere to procedures contributed to their inability to cope with anomalies experienced during the accident flight. Thus, the Board also concluded that Marlin Air’s selection of a chief pilot/check airman who failed to comply with procedures and regulations contributed to a culture that allowed an ill-prepared first officer to fly in Part 135 operations.
The report adopted today by the Board, points out that FAA guidance regarding appointment of check airmen requires Principal Operations Inspectors (POI) to verify the check airman candidate’s “certificates and background.” Additionally, all required training must be completed, and the airman’s training records must show satisfactory completion of initial, transition, or upgrade training, as applicable. The guidance does not specifically address POI actions when the background evaluation discloses negative information. This lack of guidance can result in the appointment of check airmen who do not adhere to standards and who possibly jeopardize flight safety.
As a result of this accident investigation, the Safety Board issued recommendations to the FAA, and the American Hospital Association regarding airplane and system deficiencies, FAA oversight, and the safety ramifications of an operator’s financial health.
A summary of the findings of the Board’s report is available on the NTSB’s website at:http://www.ntsb.gov/Publictn/2009/AAR0906.htm

Cessna lands on highway Interstate 95
October 23, 2009
This is a news report of a recent emergency landing (and take-off, after repairs) of a Cessna on the Interstate 95 stretch not far from me. Great video of the aircraft taking off, right at the DOT camera! That’s not often seen, so it’s here for your viewing enjoyment.
As usual, the local news has enough inaccuracies to make this somewhat amusing. Earlier reports stated that an Essna aircraft had to take off from the highway, then it noted that the small aircraft’s engines were running at full power to make the take off. A “mere 600 yards” available for taking off! The Cessna could make three take-offs with that much length, but clearly the reporter is not a pilot. This report shows the “malfunctioned fuel cylinder” briefly, which I always thought was an engine cylinder. The DOT worker adds a bit of local entertainment, certainly, “By golly, I’ll tell you what!”
