... and its four occupants after a total loss of engine power, diving the helicopter into the ground at high speed - Near Botany Bay, Saint Thomas, US Virgin Islands, 15 February 2021. The four occupants were Daniel Yanonne, Neisha Zahn, their son Tyler Yannone... and a female pilot, Maria Rodriguez.
Of course it was a female pilot and of course she didn't even try to autorotate. From what I see, when the engine failed there was a sharp yaw (normal) but the pilot didn’t recognize the loss of power soon enough. You have just a few seconds to recognize loss of power and lower the collective. Dumb cunt!
