On April 10, 2025, a tragic helicopter crash occurred over the Hudson River near Manhattan, New York City, resulting in the deaths of all six individuals on board. The victims included a Spanish family of five—Agustín Escobar, CEO of Siemens Spain; his wife, Mercè Camprubí Montal, an executive at Siemens Energy; and their three young children—along with the 36-year-old pilot.
Here are the pilot’s final radio transmissions before the tragic helicopter crash in the Hudson River:
“Landing now, I need fuel.”
“Approaching the heliport, but I’m experiencing technical issues.”
“I have a serious mechanical failure, I’m losing control of the aircraft.”
