Besides the fact that helicopters are inherently less safe than fixed wing aircraft, they also tend to operate nearer to the ground giving pilots less time to react when something goes wrong. The other services also have relatively frequent rotary wing accidents, but the Army has a lot more helicopters and this more accidents.

Good thing they do training runs in the middle of towns and cities... I wish they'd stop. Someone posted a drill being run in the heart of San Diego? and all I thought was one of these birds is going to go down and take out a apartment.
