Are the wingy bits on the butt important?
Why wouldn't you just stop when it was on the ground?

There has to be some explanation for this other than incompetence. Was the pilot having a stroke?

>>2058275
helicopters have this thing called translational lift. one of the downsides of coaxial rotors is that if you don't have enough translational lift, the bottom rotor can sometimes end up entirely engulfed in the vortices generated by the top rotor and stall because of that. the usual result of such an event looks a lot like the webm in the OP.

just an educated guess tho

How does that explain the fact that they botched not one but TWO survivable crash landings and managed to pancake and die in a fireball

"my entire tail assembly broke off but is still attached to the aircraft and gyrating" would not be my first assumption in a crisis and I don't think you can train people for that

boss will kill me if i crash helicopter, and if boss gets blood on his hands he'll kill my family too so i'll kill myself and helicopter in crash and keep boss's hands clean

Based and bootpilled

Nah, that part is just decorative. The pilot was probably drunk.

>there's a helicopter about to crash and the retard is filming a fucking panorama

Also he didn't fly so good.

>>2058281
My assumption is that they were unaware of the tail situation.
But why not land immediately and assess the damage... no idea. Just Russian things.
