Robert Sumwalt, head of the US National Transportation Safety Council, said on Tuesday that pilot Ara Zobayan flew according to normal visual flight rules, meaning he needed to see where he was flying.
The helicopter Zobayan-driven had to take off abruptly and nearly cut through the clouds when the Sikorsky S-76 suddenly began to descend and crashed into the hills below, killing all the passengers.
The helicopter did not have a so-called “black box” to record actions in the air because it was not necessary.

The tragedy occurred a year ago when a helicopter flying Kobe Bryant from Los Angeles to his daughter’s basketball competition on January 26 crashed into a hillside on a foggy morning. All nine people who flew died, and as a result, their fingers immediately turned towards one person.
Bryant’s wife, Vanessa, blamed the pilot. She and the relatives of the other victims also blamed the blame on the companies that owned and operated the helicopter.
The pilot’s brother did not blame K. Bryant, but claimed that the NBA basketball player was aware of the risk of flying in bad weather.
The company that controlled the helicopter blamed the thick fog and the airspace controller.
