CEO Brett Newman claims the departing pilot, Ashley Jenkinson, was likely distracted by front-row passengers and failed to make a critical radio call before takeoff. Newman believes a simple glance to his right would have revealed the oncoming helicopter. He also revealed Jenkinson had a cocaine interest, though unknown to management, and stressed his zero-tolerance policy. The company, now Surfers Paradise Helicopters, has updated procedures. The inquest continues, focusing on preventing future tragedies. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
