  • Canadian naval helicopter crash in Greece.

    The Canadian military was scrambling for answers Wednesday after losing contact with one of its new Cyclone helicopters, with reports that at least one person was killed when it crashed into the Mediterranean Sea. The Cyclone was deployed on board the Halifax-class frigate HMCS Fredericton and was participating in a NATO exercise off the coast […]

    It looks like one of the recently delivered Cyclone ASW helicopters (Canadian spec Sikorsky S92) has crashed during a NATO exercise.
    Reports that the crew of 5 are missing.
    This is a huge tragedy for Canada, as well as a major blow for Naval Aviation there, struggling for years as their sea king fleet were literally falling from the skies.
    For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.

              I saw footage of the crash last night. The ejections were quite low at an acute angle.
