aonag: I have watched it.... The pilot didn't land the helicopter the right way.... He should have reduce speed or even brig it to a hault while its hovering get a ballance first before dropping the engine or even turn off the speed |

GraGra247: to get sympathy votes and to make the gullible think it was God that saved him meanwhile it was just a helicopter stunt. Note that he was supposed to be flying on a military helicopter cuz he's the VP here is the definition of sympathy votes from Cambridge dictionary of English.

SalamRushdie: Mr. Rushdie's knowledge of helicopter flight is evident in this post, and in the post that followed it. Having read through all other opinions expressed thus far as thus topic grows to 3 pages, there are precious few other respondents commenting here, who have even the most basic understanding of rotary wing aerodynamics. For as long as VIP's find themselves aboard helicopters that crash, conspiracy theorists will never run out of material to feast on, like so many vultures gathering around a buffalo carcass out on the unforgiving Serengeti Plains. Thank you Mr. Rushdie, for cutting through the fog of misinformation that beclouds the thinking of so many internet warriors and armchair aviators who commented on this incident. Speaking of fog, may I add my humble speculation that the pilot in all likelihood became disoriented by the whirlwind of thick dust kicked up by the helicopter's downdraft, and in those critical seconds, misjudged his distance to the ground, sank too fast, and was thus sucked down by his own rotor wash, in the phenomenon known as "Vortex Ring State", which incidentally also caused the crash of a US military Blackhawk helicopter deployed during the special forces raid on the Bin Laden compound in Pakistan some years back. So, my layman's speculation, for all it is worth, is that the Nigerian VP's helicopter crash-landed due to the extremely dusty landing site that was chosen, perhaps because there simply was no other suitable landing site available in that desert area of Northern Nigeria that he was visiting on the fateful day. An incident like this would be enough to induce a fear of flying in lesser men than VP Osinbajo. Good to see the VP climbing out alive and intact. It is safe to presume that from now on, VP Osinbajo will become a lot more selective about where he travels by helicopter, and about who is at the controls of his assigned bird. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

A pilot who's flying the VP won't make that wrong calculation. I can give it to the Black hawk guy due to the emergency situation (Bin laden), but when you fly a helicopter you can mentally "calculate" the ground which your going to land. What about helicopters that land at night then what will you guys say about that. |

excerpt from daily post. A statement by his spokesman, Laolu Akande, said Osinbajo departed Abuja around 1pm on a Chopper ride to Kogi State in continuation of the Family Chats & Next Level engagements. He said: “Prof. Osinbajo headed first to Kabba, and while landing at the Kabba Stadium, the Helicopter suddenly skidded sideways until it halted on its side few metres away from the intended resting spot. unquote: the helicopter did not crash, it just moved some few spot. |

the question now is who put that video on the net to whip up sympathy if not APC MONSTERS. I Stand by what I said |

Jakumo: Thank you Mr. Rushdie, for cutting through the fog of misinformation that beclouds the thinking of so many internet warriors and armchair aviators who commented on this incident.

Yes. I think the whirl wind of dust caused the pilot to lose all that he needed at that critical time of landing. So he must have dropped rapidly and that cause a punch in or slant landing. |

PFRB: https://www.google.com/amp/dailypost.ng/2019/02/03/osinbajo-presidency-explains-helicopter-crashed-identifies-people-board/amp/ Now this i can believe, not helicopter crashed and Osinbajo survived cause he is super-man abi. Anyways thank God for his life |
