A newly released NTSB docket on the deadly Hudson River tour helicopter crash reveals two lines of evidence pointing in opposite directions. DNA from multiple bird species turned up on the wreckage — including the exact rotor blade that lost its tip — but the NTSB's own frame-by-frame video study found no visual evidence of a bird strike anywhere in the breakup sequence. The docket also details what happened inside New York Helicopter Charters in the days after the crash, and points to a Bell 206 breakup years earlier in Australia as a possible precedent. No probable cause has been issued yet. 🔔 Subscribe for the full breakdown when the NTSB releases its final report. #factorpartner — PARTNERS & SPONSORS — ▸ For business inquiries → takingoff@outloudtalent.com ▸ Serendipitous Films – Need a video for your company? → sales@s-films.com ▸ AEROVERSE – Use code TakingOff for 15% off! → https://www.aeroverse.com/ ▸ FlyingEyes Optics – Get 10% off pilot glasses → https://flyingeyesoptics.com/pages/ta... ▸ Colten Mortgage – Residential mortgage & refi, run by a pilot! → https://www.coltenmortgage.com/takingoff ▸ XeVision – Extreme LED Landing Lights.
