Helicopter crash at King Power

[Jeff]

What I still cannot understand is that the police definitely had at least 2 drones in the air as crowds were leaving the stadium. Why are they talking about 'a drone' and 'the drone' as if they only had one?

BT Sport use drones, so one of them may have been the police's. They've also said they had no drones in the air at the time.

The one with the green lights was flying over Burnmoor Street, between Dykes road and Pavilion Close. I don't believe that would have belonged to BT Sport.

The one with red lights and 100% definitely flown by the police was close to the junction with Dykes Road and Aylestone Road on the same side of Dykes Road as the stadium, close to the crash site.

All this was between 7.30 and 7.40pm.

Also, a witness has said that a policeman approached the stricken helicopter and tried to smash a window. This was obviously before it exploded. Where did he appear from and how come he was so close?

Are you serious ?

It was after a game - there are Police Officers outside the ground for a good hour and a half after any home match

Why are you speculating on your own strange conspiracy theories, when an air crash investigation is underway ?

 

[Jeff]

If you want wild uninformed speculation about the cause, but by people who know more about helicopters, I recommend this thread: https://www.pprune.org/rotorheads/6...ester-city-football-club-not-condolences.html

Well, they're not all idiots

I say again, leave it to the professional investigators, with access to far better evidence than a telephoto lens picture, video from a different day, fourth rate guesses based on third hand rumour of what some unidentified person may have said, miscellaneous other stuff.

The usual suspects are making statements of certainty already.....as is their habit...despite knowing nothing of what caused the accident.

Would you rocking chair experts give it a rest and at least have the courtesy to stipulate that you are working off pure fantasy.

Perhaps ya'll might just put a sock in it until some real facts are provided where by you might begin to have a reasonable basis for your conjecture.

If you want wild uninformed speculation about the cause, but by people...

I'd just prefer no idle speculation and finger-pointing at all. The ptb will find out the cause and we will all know at the proper time. Do we really want to stoop so low on this forum?

 

[Jeff]

Do we really want to stoop so low on this forum?

No. That's why I was trying to send people elsewhere to get their speculation fix.

 

[bocadillo]

No. That's why I was trying to send people elsewhere to get their speculation fix.

Then can we say that any further speculation will be deleted?

That, in itself is speculation I believe?

I am not doing anything of the sort.

The police say they had one drone in operation. I believe they had at least two.

 

[alex]

Please no. Not here.

Perhaps you should tell the accident investigators. What you think can be gained by expounding your theory on here is unclear.

What theory?

 

[Blue Maniac]

This just isn’t the place for wild conspiracy theories.

Guys, there is footage emerging on the Sun page of the helicopter going down.

It's harrowing. For those wanting to see it here's the link... https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/7620935/leicester-helicopter-crash-footage-stadium-fatal-spin/

For those not wanting to see it. Avoid the Sun web site.

Maybe I am wrong but this is not appropriate and I will not be watching.

I’ll just keep that site blocked I reckon.

 

[lazzer]

Steward has sold his footage to the Sun. I hope they passed it on to the investigation. I've seen it and it's harrowing it didn't help me at all and didn't reveal anything that hadn't been discussed.

 

[homer]

Somebody inside the Club - presumably a steward - has gone and sold that to the Sun ?

Seriously, what the feck is going on in the World ?
