MAJ Hubert C. Carter [P] [Need Tail#] #71-20296 2LT William A. Warren. Investigation suspected that they continued flight using degraded visual cues that caused them to falsely interpret their altitude and visible horizon. SSG Michael R. Robson [MO] These factors led the German Luftwaffe in 1935 to establish a sea based unit, eventually being named the Seenotdienst (airsea rescue service) under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Konrad Glotz at Kiel for the sole purpose of recovering aircrews in the ocean.By 1939 the Luftwaffe had expanded this rescue force by adding Heinkel59 float aircraft specifically modified for this mission. UH-1H precessing main attitude indicator. 1LT James A. Johnson [SP]. Investigation determined that the torque on the clamping bolts of the swashplate outer ring trunnion bore was less than prescribed resulting in the trunnion bore wearing through the retaining bolts and coming out in flight. At 20' AGL, A/C suddenly turned right and settled down to ground, M/R blades hit rock outcropping next to landing area, pitched up then fell down the side of mountain, rolling several times coming to rest far below the saddle and was consumed by post-crash fire.
