I did a search, and don't think this has been posted here yet... mods pls delete this if it has ! But for anyone who hasn't seen it - there's been another one...
As usual excellent analysis from the Droning On channel there...
Maximum scary how fast it goes from 'speck in distance' to right on top of it (or underneath it in this case)... it seems the pilot doesn't even try to react, but wouldn't have had time to do anything meaningful even if he saw the heli when it was 2 pixels on his screen... I mean, sure, he could have dragged left and done either a hard rise or descend, but I don't think he had time to work out whether the heli was above or below, left or right of him, so any decision / action here would have been little better than pot luck...
