26 Years Ago Today - March 23, 1998: Members of @LAFD Remember the Crash of 'Fire 3'.
On the morning of March 23, 1998, while transporting a critically injured 12 year old girl from a traffic collision in Sunland to @ChildrensLA Hospital, #LAFD helicopter 'Fire 3' developed a sudden and catastrophic mechanical failure of its tail rotor system.
Despite a near total loss of control, Pilot Steven Robinson expertly maneuvered the aircraft away from vulnerable homes below and subsequently crashed near the intersection of Red Oak Drive and Fern Dell Drive in #GriffithPark.
Three LAFD members and their young patient, Norma Vides-Anaya, were killed in the crash, while an additional two LAFD members were seriously injured.
Each year on this somber anniversary, LAFD personnel from nearby stations - today, members of Fire Station 35 in #LosFeliz, unfazed by a sudden downpour; return to this sacred spot to formally salute their fallen colleagues, perform landscape maintenance and polish the plaque to ensure our fallen brothers are never forgotten.
Today, we fulfilled our rightful promise to never forget the sacrifice of:
- Apparatus Operator Michael D. McComb
- Firefighter/Paramedic Michael A. Butler
- Firefighter/Paramedic Eric F. Reiner
