I tried to find a logical link but no, I don't think there is one between terrorism and this incident.
Considering my experience with Greek and Greeks it's a wonder the helicopter was in flight for 2h anyway!
Can you please tell me your expirience about Greek? (Greece) and Greeks ?
As a Greek i must tell you that it was an Army CH-47D/MH-47E CHINOOK Helicopter Bought and Made in USA a year and a half ago, the pilot was a trainer
of them, and he was recently come from US training.
It is the same Helicopter is used for transportation of prime minister of Greece in case of some emergency.
Off course that doesnt say nothing about the accident itself, the weather at the time off accident was severe and we dont know yet if it was a man or
machine fault.
Patriarch Petros VII of Alexandria, the spiritual leader of Greek Orthodox Christians in Africa and he was the youngest Patriarch in Greek Orthodox
Church died at age of 56, along with his brother in same Helicopter.
Greece's defence minister has sacked the country's air force chief over an hours long delay in launching a search for a crashed helicopter i and at
the moment Coast guard and special army recovery units are looking for evidence in place of accident.
As for you Shoo and your comment
for the 2 hour flight... that is a no comment for me, just ask your buddies who came in Greece for the
Olympics if it is safe to fly and been here !
Thanx
