The Hawaiian Helicopter Losses - They know better. The USA military must understand the turbulence in the air and oceans due to heating. Yet, they embarked on a training mission in the worse turbulence I've ever seen. I noted about a week or so ago the waters were churning. There were advisories everywhere in Hawaii .
I can appreciate how Americans like to train in extreme conditions to perfect their skills, but, those extreme conditions destroyed them. There are some weather conditions that will destroy militarizes. Additionally, there were no boats on the water quit possibly because of the advisories. If the boats can't go out to accompany a training mission than they can't get on the water to find downed helicopters either.
The USA military cannot do the impossible no matter how much of their activities most consider impossible. The USA military has to add a safety margin to it's military exercises, training and missions simply because when the weather defeats them there is no one else available to defend the country.
