A Russian Ka-226 helicopter crashed in the Republic of Dagestan on Nov. 7, killing five people, including four employees of the Kizlyar Electromechanical Plant (KEMZ), the company reported on Nov. 8. The helicopter crashed near the village of Achi-Su in russia's Republic of Dagestan, located along the Caspian Sea. russian state media originally reported that the aircraft was carrying tourists. KEMZ, a russian defense company specializing in aviation equipment, published the names of those killed in the crash on Nov. 8. Four KEMZ employees were among the casualties, including the plant's deputy general director of construction and transport support. The Ka-226 flight mechanic also died in the crash. Two others were injured. KEMZ has been sanctioned by the United States for its involvement in russia's war against Ukraine.

Why the pilot continued to fly is beyond me. Why didn’t he just land the fucking thing!?!  |

Not to mention that BOTH photographers couldn't even keep the helicopter in the frame. The second guy did an EXCELLENT JOB of filming the sidewalk and the stairs.  |

Emergency procedures with loss of tail: Fly towards deeper water. Panic and go as high up as possible. |

Re: 5 Killed, 3 Injured when Helicopter Crashes in Dagestan
Kind answers my question why the pilot never put it down when he had the opportunity, he had about as much coordination as these 2 on the ground  |
