May God grant the family the fortitude to bear this great loss. Helicopter mishap is one of aviation accidents people seldom survive. The moment the copter starts spinning and wobbling, that's the end. The impact on the ground is so catastrophic that the chances of survival is little to none. Lesson drawn: No amount of money in this world can guarantee safety. RIP to the dead. 58 Likes 1 Share |

Pilot Eric Swaffer is believed to have saved the lives of hundreds of fans by steering the doomed aircraft away from vulnerable fans on the ground. It avoided busy roads and the last of the 31,000 fans who were still in the area along with dozens of police officers. The doomed Leicester City helicopter pilot may have been become stuck in a ‘dead man’s curve’ after the aircraft’s tail rotor failed, experts suggested last night The scene of the crash has been sealed off by police officers with a sheet covering one end of the helicopter in the stadium's car park. A graphic shows the locations around the King Power Stadium which the crashed helicopter could have threatened. 2 Likes 1 Share

Burnley and Chelsea players took part in a moment's silence ahead of their Premier League fixture at Turf Moor on Sunday. Manchester United players and their mascot also stood in silence before their game against Everton on Sunday afternoon. Leicester City chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha walks to his helicopter which has landed on the pitch after the game against Southampton in April 2016. He is fifth on the Thailand richlist of billionaires and is said to be worth close to £4Billion. 4 Likes

This is a very sad news, my heart is broken. I wish the families well and my condolence to the family and fans. The pilot died a hero because the helicopter would had crash landed at where thousands of fans are, but the pilot tried his best and made the helicopter to crash in a safe area. By this singular act, i hope GOD forgives him of all his sins and accept his soul into heaven and that of the others. 90 Likes |
