Helicopter crashes are yard sales. Water landings in the winter are very problematic. The Navy makes pilots and crew members practice crashing a whole bunch:




Do a search on "Helo Dunker". I have lived the dream many times. Surviving the crash is the first step, the flip is the hard part.

I wish it had worked out in their favor.
