A navy helicopter crew has been praised for preventing a potential tragedy when their chopper crashed off the South Coast of New South Wales.
The helicopter was carrying out an extraction exercise before crashing into the ocean.
The Defence Flight Safety Bureau is investigating the incident.

only people that drive helicopters can prevent helicopters crashs, bravoπ
First they were very lucky choppers fall like a brick no gliding down.
The RAN got rid of these helicopters because they are mechanically unsafe, the SF At Holsworthy became the lucky recipients of these rubbish airframes
In praising the alleged "professionalism" of the crew whilst acknowledging their actions were "text book," one wonders when standard operating procedure ceases to be standard? Everyone's a hero these days!
America needs to send 44 helicopters to Australia you. Australia people are one of the USA most valued partners on this planet
More American trash. Even the US use Russian choppers.
no matter what might have happened the crew would have been praised
And we are going to fight China yep ok
That's what happens when you fly American junk military helicopters π€£ππ€£ππ€£π
I'm glad they made it out all safe π .
Everytime my car breaks down, no cars are grounded. I think the findings should determine that decision. Way to extreme (here) in Australia. Just say the WEF is going to give you that favourable God-nod , the one (you think) you're expecting arriving at the Pearly Gates.
First a MH60R Seahawk and now a MRH90 Taipan, expensive year for ADF…….is it normal for helicopters to fall from the sky?
