Patrick,
The real reason they crash is because they are being flown at night, in bad weather, with night vision goggles, at high speeds, in formations literally feet apart. To the untrained eye the Blackhawk can resemble a truck coming down a firebreak only a lot faster. That's right, the men and women who fly them fly with the rotors barely above the tops of the trees, with the lights out. Has anyone ever mentioned that a good way to get out and see a few things and to learn independence is a tour with our good Uncle Sam?
