AUSTRALIA: Blackhawk Inquiry told pilot was tired before crash
Updated
It has not been a great week for the Australian Defence Force. This week, a scathing report found a deficient safety culture led to the deaths of nine servicemen and women after the Navy Sea King helicopter they were on crashed two years ago. And a separate Board of Inquiry has only just begun to try and get to the bottom of why an Army Blackhawk Helicopter crashed 6 months ago - killing the pilot and an SAS Trooper.
While that Inquiry has several more weeks to run, it has already heard evidence that the pilot had been feeling tired in the lead up to the accident.
