Does this make anyone give a second thought to a helicopter trip?

icee.. it was Jack Harter 'copters. I believe there was on on Big Island recently, maybe that was Ohana ? Sad scene..
DB had forgotten about Rich, hope he's OK.
Crazie .. Well they are a risk .. flying close to mountains can be dodgy too (winds, downdrafts etc). Although I've spent time in helos and aren't too keen on them I would like to do the Kauai "no doors" trip but this report will mean my wife definitely won't consider it now !

Sorry that I reported erroneously. I should pay attention to dates when I am reading.
Now I am also concerned about RichinPA...maybe he will sense this and go send us an update.

I'm wondering if the 25th anniversary couple were asking questions here about things to do while in Kauai.
