Everyone Knows It's Windy

You would think that Paul Allen would have the most qualified helicopter pilots in the world, and you would think that having two pilots would eliminate many of the bonehead decisions that often get made just before an accident.  Like deciding to take off of a pitching, rolling ship in high winds in a new helicopter that perhaps you're not entirely familiar with.  Mr. Allen was not on board, and if I had to guess his two pilots won't be anytime soon, either.
