This helicopter crash seems bizarre

Good reputation doesn't mean perfection. It's a machine.

Wasn't perfect weather. It was limited visibility. Crashed in foothills.

Not true. I was in LA this morning. Drove away about the time they were flying.

I get it was foggy but it’s also SoCal in the morning.

Witnesses reported hearing engine trouble before it went down.

just because it's always foggy in the AM doesn't mean it's safe. Low visibility

Yes, but helicopter flight is MUCH different than airplane considerations.

Link to where it says it was on fire prior to crash? I think the witnesses

It appears this is exactly what happened. Dense fog, disorientation

Fog...I’ll bet when the NTSB reports Fog/visibility will have been a factor

It was not a $13M helicopter. Was almost 30 years old. (1991)
