Summary
A tourist helicopter carrying a Spanish family of five and a pilot crashed into the Hudson River near Lower Manhattan, killing all 6 aboard, including 3 children.
The Bell 206 helicopter plunged into the water inverted, missing its rotor blades, just over 15 minutes after departing the Wall St. Heliport.
Witnesses described loud noises and parts falling off before impact.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is investigating, and Jersey City officials renewed calls for tighter air traffic safety.
It was a tourist flight to see the city, they cost like $200. This isn’t some sort of billionaire with a private helicopter, it was a family on vacation. Are the kids better off dead too? Wtf.
Im sure the company’s janitors are sobbing.
Corporations should be collectively owned.
