Today an ambulance helicopter crashed while landing at an incident scene. Apparently it hit high voltage cables. The fatalities are:

Pilot, Bjørn Nergård, 52
Anesthesiologist, Anders Rostrup Nakstad, 38

 

My thoughts goes to Norsk Luftambulanse and the families of the victims.

Holy crap that's bad. We had a police helicopter come down on a pub in Scotland just before Christmas, that was pretty bad.

Thoughts and feelings with victims families.

Im not an expert but I have a feeling this is human error. The helicopter hit powerlines then went down. Cant (in my eyes) blame the heli for that.

Fair enough but either way youve got little chance surving a crash in one of them

How would they plan on getting a patient on board when he can't land it?
