I played an early version of it - but it kept crashing

Unnecessary, and in very poor taste.

Poor taste- yes.
Unnecessary - maybe.

Unnecessary and in poor taste is killing your child and his friend in a display of pointless bravado.

If anyone wants to see evidence his obvious disregard for the rules of flying here is the official report.

I wonder how many accidents globally are bravado based stuff gone wrong... so very many will have other specific components, so I wonder just how many are dicks showing off with vehicles inappropriately

Males account for around half of the population, so I'd say around 100%..!

Didn't mean any disrespect or offense towards the family(ies) of the other people who died in the crash, btw, but it was a bit of an open goal..

I agree. I think the whole incident was horrendous, tragic beyond description, and worse of all (all things taken into consideration) avoidable.

A sick sense of humour is one thing, but a "Colin McRae helicopter game that keeps crashing"? 4 dead people (2 children). Honest opinion = too far.

Well.. That's you told, Myranda! Now go away and have a good long think about what you've done!

I've joked about worse... and to be fair I don't know them so don't need for feel upset - there's people dying all the time, every day I can't cry about them all.
