More detail on this person: D/1/10 CAV A/C crashed in a steep ravine near Timber Mountain while

on this helicopter were:
CW2 Phillip A. Jones [PP]
CW2 Jules S. Guidry
CW2 Steven D. Hodge

The aircraft was heavy but not over gross. I served on the accident investigation as maintenance
officer. The cause was pilot error not Jules. An IP continued a flight that should have been
