onetrack Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Red, that's old news. The wreckage of the missing R66 Robinson has been found, police divers have dived on it, and recovered some items from the wreckage. Included in the recovered items is an on-board camera, which the ATSB is hoping will yield some information on the crash. Neither the pilots body, nor his dog, have been found. I would hope he had the dog properly restrained, and I would hope that something the dog did, wasn't the reason behind the crash. The R66 was relatively new. https://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-updates/incidents/grim-discovery-in-search-for-missing-helicopter-pilot-and-dog/news-story/8b54c6a53ab7db9cdc175a66d81a78b0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 Why was it reported as 3 days ago, and how come it didn't appear here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetrack Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Helicopters missing and crashed don't seem to rate as high as light aircraft missing and crashed, on here. The disappearance of the R66 seemed to be overshadowed by other bad news, such as Gaza. Edited October 29, 2023 by onetrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
