NTSB Goes Virtual For Board Meeting

Board Members And Investigative Staff Meeting Will Meet Virtually

It's another sign of the times... as the NTSB has decided to go all virtual for an upcoming board meeting in order to keep everyone involved, healthy.

The National Transportation Safety Board announced last week its intention to hold a board meeting May 19, 2020, 9:30 a.m. (EDT), to determine the probable cause of the Jan. 29, 2019, crash in Zaleski, Ohio, of a Bell 407 helicopter operated as an air ambulance.

The helicopter, operated by Viking Aviation, LLC, and doing business as Survival Flight, was on a mission to pick up a patient when the crash occurred in deteriorating weather. All three occupants – the pilot, flight nurse and flight paramedic – died in the accident.

In keeping with established Federal and local social distancing guidelines to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, while also ensuring the NTSB’s compliance with the Government in the Sunshine Act, the board meeting for this investigation will be webcast to the public, with the board members and investigative staff meeting virtually. No physical gathering for this board meeting is planned.
