Huntsville Helicopter Crash Kills Four People

The Houston Chronicle is reporting today that four people have died in a tragic helicopter crash inside the Sam Houston National Forest near Huntsville, Texas. 

Apparently, the air ambulance went down around 2:45 a.m.

The company that owned the helicopter, PHI Air Medical, identified three of the victims as pilot Wayne Kirby; flight nurse Jana Bishop, and flight paramedic Stephanie Walters.  The story does not identify the fourth victim.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families.

We hope also that PHI will provide the answers the families need as to why such a tragic accident occurred.  Determining why such crashes occur is so important because it allows companies to take steps to avoid such crashes in the future.
