Iran President Ebrahim Raisi Killed in Helicopter Crash: What Happened | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi died in a deadly helicopter crash in east Azerbaijan Province of Iran yesterday. His mortal remains were discovered by a rescue team today. While the cause of the crash is yet to be determined, experts say the bad weather could have been a factor. Initial investigation has revealed that Raisi's helicopter made a hard landing. They are also pointing out that President Raisi and his team were flying in a decades-old chopper. No one aboard the chopper survived the crash, including Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, a cleric and five of Raisi's close aides. Raisi was a hardline ruler, and a close aide to Iran's Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. After Raisi's departure, Khamenei announced a five-day national mourning period for Iran, and said that the regime will continue to operate "without any disruptions". He has also appointed Vice President Mohammad Mokhber to serve as Iran's interim President until the next Presidential elections in the regime. On Vantage, Palki Sharma brings you a detailed report on Raisi's death and what it could mean for Iran.

Why the headline said "Killed" not "Died" in Helicopter Crash as if it was intentional and not a accident...

[@Azureecosse]

where is your evidence to support that comment?

[@robertlanario]

@@Azureecosse We saw the thick fogged, and the Mountain., where is your evidence that he was killed, Kobe Bryant was at the same incident and his helicopter is much more new and modern than the Iranian President is ridding..or are you going to a narrative that the U.S. and Israel are the one behind it, then proved it, The U.S. created the fogged and the Israelis built the Mountain...

As a pilot, the first you learn when flying into fog is,take a 180°and go back to the point where there was visibility. This is easy in a chopper because you don't need speed to get lift.

That helicopter has a turbine engine which may have needed a refurbishment.

That may be true yet I think too is that when you can't see in a helicopter, the very minute you "make a turn" you lose spatial relationship ~ and go into what a guy breaking down the Kobe Bryant crash had a specific name for the actual phenomenon, but I cannot recall it. He explained that the brain cannot distinguish between acceleration and gravity as the turn begins or while you're in it.

We can only hope the dead president will help to enlighten them from the other side. The murder of a girl for not covering her head properly is a sign of extreme insanity. Considering Trump even got voted in once shows that America opted for insanity against insanity, like " we can be as nuts as u are, and more".

⁠@@anitawallace265yes, weather definitely could have been a contributing factor. However, regardless of weather the crash was probably due to poor maintenance, or a mast bump. The older double bladed Huey is one of the most notoriously difficult to fly helicopters in existence. They are extremely temperamental, very unforgiving and easy to crash. One slightly wrong maneuver and it’s over. For example, suddenly attempting to avoid a mountainside you couldn’t see far enough ahead because of fog could easily cause a mast bump. A mast bump will almost always cause the rotor to fly off in a different direction while the rest of the machine plumets like a rock to the ground. Can be fun to fly in a simulator, but I wouldn’t want to fly or be a passenger in a real one, no matter what the weather is like.

Hi, aviation inspector here that works will helicopter logistics. None of my pilots would EVER fly through those conditions, over that terrain, at that altitude.

[@TheJAIHIND101]

Sorry I have no idea about aviation so my question is quite dumb. If you are flying in such foggy conditions, why can't you take the helicopter to a great height so that at least you don't collide with the mountains? Or even better, just land it immediately. Why don't they do it?

[@brodricj3023]

The weather was no issue for the helicopter - if it was properly equipped for instrument flight - but the altitude definitely was. The Bell 212 can't fly at 10,000 feet on one engine, if an engine failed in flight they were doomed, even in good weather.

Iran President died in a helicopter that was a 40 year old US Bell helicopter. It had no altimeter showing altitude so very dangerous when foggy and unclear weather because the pilot has no idea of the altitude of land around and beneath them. It is a very risky helicopter to fly in when weather is not perfectly clear. The weather was very foggy when it crashed with 10 people on board. That happened in Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant died at 41 in helicopter crashed in January 2020 with his family crashed into the Hollywood hills because the pilot didn't know the altitude of the helicopter or the hills around him and just going by eyesight in bad weather. Which is basically flying blind in a suicide flight to the US sports star and his family and also for the Iranian President. An sane pilot would of refused to fly when the weather wasn't clear.

If that is true, then that is inexcusable for Raisi's staff to arrange such a trip and in a helicopter that had not been properly maintained.
