KTRK helicopter crashes, 2 killed

Posted by Don Day on October 13, 2008

Just over a year after four people died when two TV choppers collided in Phoenix, there’s word out of Houston that KTRK’s chopper has crashed, killing the pilot and photographer on board. Details from KTRK, video from KHOU and more from Chron.com.

    I worked at the Phoenix station, ABC15, when our helicopters collided over Indian School Park. My heart aches for the station and their family, asI know that horrible feeling and we they are all going through. You feel helpless and yet you have to carry on with the day to day news without letting emotions get in the way. It was the hardest couple of weeks that I have ever gone through professionaly. I wonder if it was the same helicopter company that owned our helicopter in Phoenix. Does anybody know?

    It was not the same leasing company that owned ABC15′s helicopter. It was, however, the same company that owned the Channel 3 aircraft in Phoenix.
