106 PaveHawk Down In Afghanistan

[Gerard]

Todays Newsday reported that a PaveHawk from the Westhampton 106th Air Rescue Wing crashed early Friday in Afghanistan while
on a medevac mission but THANKFULLY there were no casulties, but nothing about injuries. NO other info was forthcoming and the AF is investigating.
Hopefully our NYC Aviation member Nick is fine.

Glad all survived and thoughts to Nick! Thanks for informing, Gerard. :)

NY Times and Reuters are reporting one dead in the crash. :(

Rough... A guy in my flight school class is going to the 106th to fly helos...
I'm personally scared of them!
