CH-46 Chopper Crash

Some guys lived, but a few died. I saw an interview with one of the Marines on board. The Flotation device failed to inflate and it began to sink imeadtly. I dont recall the numbers, but i think 9 or 10 of them lived. 3 or 4 died. Many of them were carrying heavy equipment, so understandably a few of them died.

im guessing they got out...does seem hard to since it was on it's side and thank god the blades broke. and yea i agree it would be hard to land on a moving ship.

well, its hard to land a huge chopper on a moving ship's platform....u can see the boats coming in from behind...must be a drill, hope they all lived to tell the tale :)

That pilot was a douchebag. His approach sucked.

Most likely not, they'll have been trained for it. They probs lived.
