After surviving this crash, the pilots should have a hell of a tale to tell. Watch at 1:31 to see the rescue crew drop the ball.

    Thats wierd, the tail was vibrating up & down prior to the tail section ripping appart. Looked like ground resonance, but in the air. Thats what i find weird. Really never saw that before. Maybe TR major balancing problem or axle fitting failure. Whatever whappened, i want to know more. But it aint here on break that'll ill know for sure...

      @lepape2Your forgetting that a weight hanging from the airframe adds a stress point on the airframe which changes the dynamic frequency. This, together with some damage or fatigue weakness, the right cross wind and engine rpm will shake the tail boom which clearly just falls off. That chopper shouldnt have been in the air, the ground crew should have caught the problem or the air crew should have inspected their bird.
