NTSB: Spatial Disorientation Triggered Aeromed Fatal
Helicopter spun near the runway and impacted terrain at night, in fog.

The NTSB has concluded that the probable cause of a fatal June 2019 helicopter air ambulance crash at the Brainerd (Minnesota) Airport (BRD) was the result of pilot spatial disorientation and loss of control during a night-time instrument approach. Both the pilot and flight nurse were killed, while the flight paramedic survived with serious injuries.
