Think there may have been a GD thread on this one and I know there was a thread in Aviation...

The second vid, at 4:20, I stood outside and watched as that chopper took off from Portland ANGB. A little while later, while eating lunch, watched in horror on live TV, as that crash occurred. Thankfully, no one was killed in the crash.
