Post by PilotDAR »

CBC is reporting a Chinook is down, perhaps in the Ottawa river near Petawwa, I hope it's a minor incident....

Sounds like it’s was major. News outlets are reporting that 2 people are missing out of the crew of 4

Mission preparedness may involve riskier training that typical civilian standards. C'est la vie. You knew that when you enlisted.

Probably just doing some serious shit and things unfortunately went sideways. Petawawa has some bad mothers that do some wild stuff and close to the envelope.

Sad to lose anyone
