At approximately 4:10 pm on 15 September 2007, an AS350B2 Squirrel helicopter registered G-CBHL to McRae crashed 1 mile north of Lanark, Scotland, close to the McRae family home. McRae's agent Jean-Éric Freudiger has stated that McRae was piloting the helicopter at the time of the crash. Police confirmed the next day that McRae, his five year old son Johnny, and two family friends, Graeme Duncan and Johnny's six year old friend Ben Porcelli, died in the crash.McRae's previously active website, ColinMcRae.com, was later replaced with a memorial screen stating a few details about the crash, and then with a short statement released on behalf of McRae's father; Jimmy.

  • So it now seems Colin was flying without a license, and contry to rules set down by the CAA, He was also flying too fast and too low with aggresive flight manouvers that were "Beyond the aiframes capabilities" It also turns out that 6 year old Ben Porcelli was not an autherised passenger because his parents did not know McRae had taken him on the flight! Still think he's a "HERO"?

  • @bigglesdaf yes! :) a massive hero and inspiration, a truly great sportsman!
