Title: Blackhawk Down
Post by: Downunder on June 18, 2007, 10:16:13 am

Hi all,

The inquiry into the loss of Australian Army Blackhawk A25-221 (pilot & 1 trooper killed, 8 rescued) which crashed while making a landing on the deck of HMAS Kanimbla of the coast of Fiji in Nov 06 started today.

The inquiry was shown video footage of the crash which has now been shown on national TV. (The ADF resisted  the release of the video).

Pretty dramatic footage. At the moment I can't find a link on the web/news but I am sure its only a matter of time before posted. If I find a link I will post ASAP.
