    So they pulled the wrong Engine Fire Handle? or what? it seems like they pulled the wrong handle and crashed because of it... surprisingly this is all too common... in my A&P school, we have a Bell 222 heli that crashed in the east river a few years back ( N404WW ) on its initial acent from the 32nd st heliport, its #1 engine caught fire, in a panic the pilot pulled the #2 engine fire handle and shut down their good engine, causing them to crash upside down and sink in the east river, killing all aboard ( accoring to our instructor) luckily, in this Mad Dog sim, they can just push the reset button ;o)
