Sad 😢 deepest sympathy to their family 🙏🙏🙏

[@richardchow4775]

Why do they need 7 people in a chopper doing fancy acrobatic maneuvers for show? 3 in the other chopper is already too many considering the risks involved.

What a Sad day.. condolences to the family and friends..😢

[@user-oo1rt5zg8s]

When having Helicopter display usually they are not allowed to carry passengers. In this instant why were all the Helicopters carrying passengers! Who gave the green light? That person should be charged for manslaughter and negligence!

Either the front was going slow or the rear one going fast or both.

Minister of D says sop must change if necessary after investigations. Looks like there were no sop practiced in this case. Why increase the no. of casualties with so many in the chopper? Imagine if the stadium was full. Even higher deathtoll.

Did the malay pilot fly into the Indian pilot or vice versa ? RMN needs to wake up....This accident could have claimed the lives of 100s on the ground as the stadium was empty..

Both helicopter were Western built tofu machines. Although the Eurocopter AS555SN origin is from France and the Agusta AW-139 origin from Italy but the engine and parts were built and manufacture in USA.

Alcohol drinks can lead to accident,avoid drinking alcohol if ther is a mission the next another day.

[@FloppyFD]

its not because of alcohol

[@SuccessforLifester]

Such footages will not happen in Singapore. Because the last time photos of bionix accident were shared, the serviceman was later charged for it . Also mistakes in administration of vac injections would not be known. Because they forbade the taking of videos and photos

[@brucekwan1911]

The RMA pilots must be skillful and well trained pilots, to be able to manoeuvre their helicopters to collide with each other . Not an easy task, the RSAF pilots wouldnt be able to do it.
