Here are some of the recoveries I've been involved with (a friend of mine owns the company). These are in the Pacific Northwest (mostly Washington State). Lots of helicopter long-line extraction work (often times, it's the only way to get a wreck out of the woods/hills). http://www.avtech-services.com/recovery_gallery.htm Bela P. Havasreti |

Hey Bela, That link you sent is quite amazing. Wow, what an eye opener! Some of those recoveries come back with what just looks like a bag of airplane bits. Some were quite painful to look at, really. Thank you for posting though. Peace, David |

Yes, some of those pictures are painfully illustrative of how bad things can get when we pilots do something stupid in an airplane.... Many of those were weather-related, or density-altitude-related. Don't push the weather and don't ask your airplane to perform outside the designed envelope, and you've just increased your odds of survival by orders of magnitude. Best thing to do is endevour to learn from others' mistakes (nobody lives long enough to make all the mistakes himself!). Bela P. Havasreti |

Very true Bela, Most accidents certainly do start with bad pilot decision making. Doing my flight training at in an aviation college setting was quite interesting because we had many human factors classes to sit through. We'd go through real life accidents and the accident reports from Transport Canada. I'd say that those classes are nearly on par in importance with lessons taught in the air by the instructor. Peace, David |
