The pilot of a helicopter that crashed in the Grand Canyon in 2018, killing five British tourists, told investigators that he had not been able to control the aircraft after a “violent gust of wind” sent it spinning, according to a new report.
The National Transportation Safety Board released its final report Thursday that said tailwinds, potential downdrafts and turbulence were the probable cause of the loss of control and tail-rotor effectiveness. The investigation found no evidence of mechanical problems with the helicopter.
The report did not include any safety recommendations.
The Airbus EC130 B4 crashed before sunset in February 2018 in a section of the Grand Canyon where air tours are not as highly regulated.
