The band, comprised of brothers Micah Redding, Josiah Redding, and Gabriel Redding, is most known for their unique "Song of the Week" podcast, for which the band members wrote, recorded, and released one new song every Saturday at midnight for a year. Since their inception, the band has produced 4 EPs, 1 single and 2 studio albums, in addition to their 52 "songs of the week" (released progressively in digital-only format across 4 volumes), and have toured relentlessly since late 2003, having performed well over 320 dates as of this writing. The band performs mainly on the college and military circuits, and has toured all over North America, Southwest Asia, and parts of Africa. The brothers are sons of Church of Christ minister Lawrence Redding, are all vegetarians, passively promote libertarian politics, and regularly delve into the philosophical in their music, lyrics, and album titles.

You can find out more about the band at their official website, http://www.reddingbrothers.com.

@chriswhitelaw3126

But there was, Gillian. As soon as we start flying lessons - no matter if its on rotary aircraft or fixed wing, we are warned against the dangers of "get there".This flight was in zero visibility. The helicopter didn't have a full range of Instrument Flight Rules equipment. The pilot had a long time in which to abort. There is something called Radar Vectoring, when he could have called in and asked for his flight to be monitored on radar and guided. There would have been no crash. Why he didnt do that, we'll never know. Also, for the passengers, that would have been an uncomfortable flight. Nothing makes people airsick more than opaque conditions outside. Still, it's done now, and may God bless them.

He absolutely did not have to do it. Every hired pilot is required BY LAW to be aware of the inclement weather pertaining to the area of flight. It's tough to tell with the video quality, but it appears this pilot went imc (inadvertent meteorological conditions) which is almost always fatal. He also was flying an aircraft equipped with instruments to fly with that kind of visibility but was not using them or possibly wasn't rated. This is the pilot's fault.

He left a valley area covered in fog all the way up to the mountain peaks, but he could not see shit and felt any second he was going to crash into the mountainside.

We just had a sight seeing helicopter crash into the Hudson River here in NYC. I believe three of the people died. It was caught on camera. The bad part is...They autorotated down fairly smoothly into the water. However they ended up drowning because they couldn't get their seat belts off under water. They should instruct people more before they go up. Practice unlaching the belts several times with their eyes open....then a few times with their eyes closed that way they'd know what to do in an emergency. These poor people needlessly died.

He actually took off with good visibility and got himself into IMC (this video doesn't show this). He should've just turned back at the moment but external pressures got the best of him and costed everybody their lives. This was 100% pilot error and had nothing to do with the aircraft. Though the aircraft is not rated to fly IFR, he had the instruments available to get him back to his starting point safely.

I am a helicopter pilot, I do not think this is a fake. This is a Robison R-44, and it is NOT qualified (certified) to fly in fog or clouds or no visibility, it is classified as VFR or Visual Flying Rules, NOT IFR or Instrument Flying Rules. The pilot should have turned back away from the decreasing visibly. Or as the clouds approached, worst case land immediately, it is a helicopter, it can land in a field or parking lot or side of the road, it only needs a space of about 40 feet by 40 feet. The top center gauge is showing the attitude of the helicopter versus the horizon, the Blue is Sky the black is ground, as you can see the loss of visibility causes a disorientation for the pilot and then the helicopter, as noted in the gauge, right before the warning horn, this horn is telling a pilot that the rotor is loosing speed (which produces lift), too late to react with no visibility. Hope this helps

Actually, as this was in Brazil, our FAA rules don't apply. R44s are often used for instrument training, so if thus equipped, would only need a qualified pilot to be safe. All avionics beyond rudimentary are a la carte from Robinson, so one would have to get a good package. But in this case, the pilot wasn't qualified, nor did he have good judgement.

And the photographer, who's husband and who knows if she had any other children, had to deal with all this. Even though, the pilot never should have flew, his death is still sad and his family still had to deal with this grief.

It's eerie and ironic that the only "life" seen after the crash is the pulsing of a collision avoidance beacon reflecting off the debris and foliage right in front of the camera. It's an inanimate object that happens to show the only sign of activity. 😔

@1:08 - @1:19 This sounds like a close call. At this time everyone looks distressed and the airspeed increases dramatically as you can hear by the increase in volume of the air rushing by the cabin. The pilot had some unknown loss of control here or made an evasive maneuver given that they were flying straight and level prior to this with no indication of needing such abrupt change in flight attitude and resumption of S & L flight. Thats a hella foreshadowing of things to come! How much more warning does a pilot need to cancel the intended destination and immediately seek safer conditions? A big disadvantage of helos in IMC is that they can't hover in a cloud as the pilot requires a fixed reference to correctly perceive his attitude. It can't be done by instruments alone. So just slowing to a hover and descending straight down to ground, seemingly the easiest thing to do, is not an option.

I'm old enough to have lost my parents but I can't imagine what it must be like for the groom and families.

I wouldn’t let my partner fly in one of those. It has 1000 things that can go wrong and when it does, it falls like a brick. Someone also correctly noted that there was heavy fog. So the pilot lost all bearing, unless he’s a genius with using onboard gauges, which in that kind of aircraft, is tricky. That’s why they rarely fly at night, which essentially, was what they were doing, due to zero visibility. The pilot over did a banking manoeuvre, and lost control. Sad.

They were not rich people. She paid like about 1800 R$ for this flight which costs about 500 U$ I also was quick to judge them. But I do speak portuguese and i researched a little bit more. So I heard interviews with their family members and friends. She wanted to do a surprise for her future husband. Besides it was her dream to fly. She had never ever flown, not even inside an airplane. Her brother also dreamed about flying one day, He was taking her to the altar. as she didn't have a father. That's why he flew together with her. That was a very sad story. the Pilot knew that this Helicopter has not enough instruments for flying blindly inside fog. but probably he thought the fog was going to be crossed quickly. He also much likely didn't want to return because it would ruin the surprise and make everybody wait. and kind of ruin the day. He got nervous and probably didn't pay much attention to the rotation of the wings. and everybody got killed! Before the flight she had many pictures of her shot by the photographer (who also died on the crash and was pregnant) BUT THE CAMERA WAS STOLEN BY PEOPLE ON THE CRASH SITE. all that this family is asking, is to get the SD card back.
