The pilot of the tourist helicopter that crashed into the Hudson River could not have done anything to save himself or his passengers after the aircraft’s rotor blades and tail boom detached, according to aviation experts. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is still investigating the cause of the crash, including searching for components of the aircraft and interviewing witnesses. The crash killed Agustín Escobar, his wife, and three children, as well as the pilot. Divers are searching for missing helicopter parts, and investigators will examine maintenance records to identify potential issues. Experts believe this fatal crash is rare and are concerned about the structural failure. The NTSB is asking for any photos or videos that could aid in the investigation, as they have been helpful in past cases. Investigators are considering a “mast bump” as a possible cause of the detachment of the rotor blades. The NTSB is still gathering evidence to determine the exact cause of the crash and prevent similar incidents in the future.
