I heard on the radio just a minute ago that "A Blackwater helicopter has crashed in San Diego wildfire". I cannot find any information on it yet,
nothing on radio website and nothing on internet.
*edit for link
www.fresnobee.com... I just found this. It would fit the bill as it happened today, in the area they said on the radio
announcement I heard, except that they said it was a Blackwater helicopter. I don't see how they could make that mistake. Probably nothing to this
but it caught my attention.
Black waters does not have S-70, and military do not rent helicopters to civilians..!!!
I got the new a helicopter crashed into a avocado grow when doing a powerline damage assesment near or in the fire area.
It may be a light helo (MD 500, B206, etc..) rented from a local company.
In fact after a quick research it is Bell 206 N412KK that crashed 3 miles off Ramona.
