People are ****ing nuts these days and the Internet has given them a voice. I saw a few clowns on Instagram (the only social media I have as I’m addicted to cars, hoes and memes) claim Iran shot it down as payback for General Salami. Un****ing real.
Kobe Bryant Dead?

Im a member on a forum where they are claiming that Epstein girlfriend was on the plane and it was sabotaged
That hoe is trying to claim it was a mixup of thinking about the knicks, clippers or some shit like that....LMFAO...nice try bitch
I tell everyone this: we all make mistakes, just own up and take the medicine and move on. It aint like she slipped a dick into a guys butthole while he was eating a chick out
@treynor, I remember you shared with us a pic with kobe and racewife in a ferrari, must have been cool meeting him.
This is 100% relative to the conditions and flight profile of the aircraft at the time of a single engine failure. Density altitude, speed, total aircraft weight and proximity to the ground all play into a helicopters ability to fly with one engine out.
With 9 total passengers and most likely nearly a full tank of fuel I am guessing the pilot did not have single engine capability below 40 knots due to the total aircraft weight being so high. This would also mean he did not have out of ground effect hover capability. If he was going slow due to lack of visibility and something in one engine let go there would be little chance of survival at the last reported altitude. He could have easily been in a situation where the helicopter would have fallen like a rock.
I am making a guess as to what MAY have happened here based off of past experiences but everything I said is totally possible and factual.
Edit:
Looking at the crash site photos the helicopter obviously hit very hard this doesn't scream single engine failure to me. Even with one engine out I am not sure they would hit that hard. I think there may have been some other failure caused this.

At its face, I buy it. Just bad circumstances.
That said, if a trove of evidence presents itself otherwise, I wouldn’t be surprised.
Today was Trump’s legal teams big roll out of Biden’s corruption. Media isn’t going to cover that, it’s convenient a major loved celebrity dies from a helicopter malfunction on a very new helicopter the day before huge corruption testimony.
How many times today did the media cut away from the hearings to cover news on this horrible event?
At this time, that’s the only coincidence though. It’s not a small one, but it can easily just be a coincidence. @jeffh81 this one is cut and dry, either just coincidence, or pro hit.
What do you think? My mind is 95/5 coincidence. That 5 wouldn’t surprise me in the least though, in the hearings today they explained how Biden Jr. made over $4m from burisma board, and dropped 3 other names to draw attention to.
Regardless what conspired, fate or evil, for that helicopter to crash, rest in peace to the lost, their families and friends and fans.
Terrible way to die, I imagine Bryant was cradling his daughter right until impact... god rest their souls.

It was written in another article that they hit the ground at about 185mph. Either they plummeted from the sky due to a mechanical failure, they just ran straight into the side of the mountain because they couldn't see it, or maybe the pilot got disoriented in the fog. At least, those are my three best guesses.
I'm in Chicago and heard the helicopter was actually owned by the state of Illinois for a period of time. It has most certainly seen some upgrades, but the radio says it was built in 1991.
Lots of people looking for answers but IMO, this was pilot error due to the weather. They never should have taken off.
S-76B would have had a full suite of electronics for low visibility flight. It's not some cheap basic Piper Cub.
Basically a Corporate version of a Blackhawk.

They were at their cruising speed when it went down so they weren't flying slow. It will be interesting to see what the final report finds
The question is, was he using them. The pilot didn't request an IFR pick-up.
The tower couldn't reliably pick them up on radar and there is witness that claims it sounded like the helicopter was in a hover. Everything is speculation until the official report comes out.
I know nothing about aviation systems however I would assume the police would also have such capabilities on their fleet of helicopters?? They had made the decision to ground them all that morning due to the fog.
I'm also curious as to if a private helicopter needs any kind of clearance before taking to the sky.
The police typically aren't using their helicopters for executive transportation, they are used as the eye in the sky. "Grounding a fleet" and not flying them because the weather isn't conducive for their intended purpose are two different things.
Clearance to fly is dependent on the airspace classification and the weather conditions where the aircraft is departing.
