in flight school - we were taught never to say "crash"
its another case of "inadvertent contact with the ground"..... grin

This is why I keep saying "helicopter flight path should be a mandatory real estate disclosure."

Airplane, not helicopter.
The Navy initially reported the crash as a helicopter, but they were wrong.
4 seater airplane on what looks like a private flight.

Interesting it took over 12 hours to update the type of aircraft.... Thought the Navy could tell the difference...
