Kobe bryant, he gone

[Northfl]

Just saw on breitbart that he died in a helicopter crash in cali. Probably not that anybody on here gives a shit. I sure dont

 

[Jefe's Dope]

Just heard this too.

 

[MCSO1357]

One way or the other, meh..

 

[Stevo86]

Never heard of her

 

[TheGerman]

And reason #28992 of why I will never ever get in a helicopter again.

 

[Northfl]

Musta had the autorotate button off

 

[Darkside-Six]

What did he know about the Clinton’s?

 

[Snipe260]

Don’t really know a lot about his political view or anything else. He seemed like a pretty classy guy who was a very good player! Rip!

 

[benchmstr]

A lot of women are going to be broke without his hush money!

Stevie Ray Vaughn helicopter tours, LLC?

Too bad. He had more class than a lot of NBA shitbirds...

Don't fly in fog, just sayin'

 

[Alphatreedog]

Sad to hear this . As sir stated he seemed classy . Good emissary of the sport , most always smilin .

 

[Tahoe]

Sounds like him and two of his kids from early reports.

 

[Tokay444]

If he actually raped that woman, fuck him. If it was a false accusation, fuck her. Ultimately his life was of zero significance to mine, and so will be his death.

 

[Tokay444]

All his kids and wife are still alive.

 

[Bender]

was a great football player, I saw her smack a home run once against Tiger Woods. The Colorado Avalanche will miss her.

And a new record for "Too Soon" as i get my Buy 10 get one free Ticket to Hell punched....

Kobe classy?

Wasn't he accused of rape and banging everything in arms length when Mrs Bryant wasn't around?

Nobody ever said he wasn't a 'hot' date!

I think that he was found not guilty... and that the general consensus was that he was falsely accused by a money-grubbing troll. But I could care less. Since Larry Bird retired, who watches basketball anyway?

I figure he had something on R.Kelly....... or maybe Epstein

 

[1J04]

I'm hearing his 13 YO Daughter was onboard.

 

[Tokay444]

Now reports say his oldest was with him.
Everyone is in such a hurry to be the first to report, they don’t give a fuck about the accuracy of the report.

I think one could just say the news media (in general) doesn't care about accuracy of reports.

 

[Jscb1b]

If only there was a helicopter big enough for all of the nba. The nfl too.

Accurate.

 

[Northfl]

So if you rape a girl and then pay her to keep her mouth shut, does that make her a hooker??
asking for a friend

 

[Arc Light]

Stay away from helos and light aircraft. Especially musicians, celebs, etc.

 

[Jethro3898]

Dang. Tough crowd.

Oh, Lord, let Sirhr open his eyes and see just how hard it is to be an upper-middle class child of the Philadelphia suburbs. He wasn't exactly a ghetto export/Fresh Air phenom.

That does suck.... she had a life ahead of her.

Sirhr

 

[Bender]

No shit. I just heard a report out of CNN (later corrected) that ArmyJerry was aboard.

so yer one of the sissies that he bothered. ???

 

[Inifinty]

Waxing cold around here tonight.

 

[DOA]

I feel sorry for all those except Kobe who passed away today.

I thought you were from Mainline, too? ;-)

Sirhr

You're absolutely right. She had a wonderful life ahead of her. With her parents love and support, she could have been anything. Doesn't matter what I, or anyone else really, thinks of Kobe. But the loss of young innocent life is never good.

God Bless that beautiful young lady.

Sort of my point, sport.

[shoot4fun]

Latest report now puts the total body count to nine. Other players from the daughter's team and their parents were on board as well.

 

[Supersubes]

5-6 years ago he showed up at the range I was a member of. He was recovering from knee surgery and hobbling around a bit. Seemed nice, no pretentiousness whatsoever. Just enjoying some rifle shooting.

"If the wings are traveling faster than the fuselage, it's probably a helicopter and therefore, unsafe.''

S-76 is a serious toy

Not much left of it

From the picture of the helo up on the side of a hill, and the reports that the fog in the area was dense, is it possible they were flying via instrument only and keeping X feet altitude while moving forward and then going at 100mph or whatever that thing moves at and were now instantly in the side of a hill?

How do you account for drastic, almost instant altitude changes in the mountains where you can have 400ft altitude and then all of a sudden come up on the face of a mountain without any warning?

Witness reported the copter falling and sputtering. Said he heard a loud bang and a fireball. Pilot, Kobe and 7 others dead.

Just about how it happened (officially) in Bosnia with former secretary Ron Brown, who had something on the Clintons.

Looks like the pilot flew into IFR conditions and lost it.

 

[BytorJr]

Always amazes me how many of these "private" aircraft fly into IFR conditions and then have no clue what to do? If they are unsure of their skills in IFR conditions, then why are they flying? We don't know this was the case; but at this point it sounds plausible. If the engines failed, did they try to auto-rotate? Seems more like they may have just flown into the mountain.

Heck, I don't like flying in IFR conditions on commercial aircraft even with GPS and ILS - especially Cat III .
