A recent helicopter crash in the Hudson River, involving a Bell 206, may have been caused by the failure of a crucial part known as the ‘Jesus Nut’.
- The crash resulted in the deaths of all occupants, including Spanish executive Agustín Escobar and Navy SEAL veteran pilot Sean Johnson.
- Aviation expert Julian Bray noted the main rotor detached, causing the helicopter to plummet.
- This detachment likely stemmed from a maintenance failure, as the part requires regular checks.
