Heli down in N.Ireland

Postby ozzy72 » Tue Dec 23, 2003 3:39 am

A British Army Gazelle has crashed in N.Ireland killing both crew. The cause of the accident is unknown, but terrorism has been ruled out.
My sympathies go out to their families :(

Very sad when anything like this happens. Especially just before Christmas. :'(

PS. I never did like helicopters & have no ambition to set foot in one. With all that stuff whirling round they're an accident waiting to happen. I've seen far too many unexplained incidents like this.
