Two helicopters crash in New Jersey, FAA and NTSB investigating

Investigating? What's to investigate, the people flying these things are idiots!

2nd Pilot Dies After Mid-Air Helicopter Collision. Woman Held Victim's Hand and Told Him 'Don't Worry'

“There was a man in there, he was conscious and breathing, and kind of just looking around," Collins told the outlet. "The only thing I could think to do was hold his hand and talk to him, so I just laid in the ground next to him and was like, 'Hey, we're here, don't worry.' "

 

This is why the folks who think flying cars are a good idea don't have critical thinking skills. This would happening thousands of times a day. Picture your auntie Blanche taking to the skies. Enough said.

 

Look, I'm a firm believer in you play with fire, you'll eventually get burned. Okay, idiots was a bit harsh, but people seem to forget the risks in something like this, helicopters have the worst crash rating, and are just machines. I rarely fly, never been in a helicopter, or jump out of airplanes, or drive top fuel dragsters( that I'd love) because some things to me are just too risky, regardless of how convenient they may be. This tragic Greg Biffle crash, I mean, the irony there is too much. We can't have zero risk, especially in the air.
