LEAVE THE SFW THREAD ALONE!!1!
Why so sure?This is almost certainly not the case.
For similar accidents but with unknown people, they tell the whole situation right away.

I don't know about Australia but here the Police are in charge of when Victims can be named to the media and that won't be done until they are formally identified and families informedMedia milking the cow. They could have easily released all the info by now, even if unofficial, but that's not good for business. Better to have all the worried people clicking and clicking links in hope for any info.
they have done this for pretty much every home game since they have owned the club, they have also used the helicopter to get to the training ground on multiple occasionsNo official statements by anyone after 20 hrs
This explains a lot about the graveness of the situation:
- Why does a private helicopter land in the middle of a city in a stadium (has it all the licences?)
- What happened to the engine, why does it stalled?
- Identify the victims, an explosion of an helicopter full of fuel with temperatures around 1200 degrees or more, it doesn’t remain much to identify
Often details of the victims are released after families and next of kin have been informed.Why so sure?

Also the helicopter must have just taken off and landed in the stadium, so it was working before that.Yep when you think he's owned it from 2010 and goes to most home games this trip has been done 100 + times.
Clearly something went wrong on arrival as this helicopter must've come in from London and obviously the pilot didn't sense anything wrong in the incoming journey otherwise they'd surely have been warned and taken a car down to London.
Tragic anyway.
First, fast, feck the facts.Sick of the rumours going around.
Why people feel the need to make assumptions of who was/wasn’t on the helicopter is beyond me.
I guess everyone just wants to be first to break the news, it’s a bit sick really.
I'd say with the whole fake news hyperbole that's come to the fore in the last two years people are desperate to try to get the facts as quick as possible to stop idiots disrupting those stories.First, fast, feck the facts.
That's the age we live in.
No the helicopter resides a short distance away at Leicesters training ground. Usually the chairman drives to the training ground for taking off in the helicopter, i know this as a family member lives a a couple of doors away from their training ground.Yep when you think he's owned it from 2010 and goes to most home games this trip has been done 100 + times.

Ah thanks for filling me in. I just read it was due to go to London (for I assume a flight to Thailand) so just thought it had come from there. Guess a short haul flight like that wouldn't have detected anything.No the helicopter resides a short distance away at Leicesters training ground.

From the eyewitness accounts I've read, sounds more like something caused the tail rotor to cease functioning. It is possible to make a survivable landing if this occurs at cruise speed, using the auto-rotate technique, but the chances are much reduced if it happens in the hover or at very low speed, which seem likely in this case.Also the helicopter must have just taken off and landed in the stadium, so it was working before that.
Also a helicopter stall *is* survivable. You can control and land a stalled helicopter somewhat.
Could have happened for so many reasons. Guess we'll find out.
At low speed and low altitude is almost impossible to control such malfunction, if the reports about the tail rotor are true.From the eyewitness accounts I've read, sounds more like something caused the tail rotor to cease functioning.

Thanks. Hope you’re right.My friend is friend of Aiyawatt. And he told earlier today that father was on board, son not and daughter almost sure not. She got a child around month ago and wasnt in Uk. So that tweet last page should be right. I dont have rights to quote it. And if somebody asks, i have lived in Bkk part time since 2011. Sad story but at least daughter wasnt there if my information is correct, like i believe/hope it is.
Thought it was the least I could do, might not mean much but always nice to show support in current climates.Just saw your post on foxes talk @Camy89

The attention is what they want/feed off. I prefer to ignore them.Red Issue can feck off. Caf official twitter should call out Red Issue publicly on this. Shame them for being insensitive, especially when it is an air crash
