It was a hectic scene at the NAS Jacksonville south seawall, as first responders answered the call during a simulated July 23 aviation mishap training scenario.
As part of the exercise, an MH-60R Seahawk helicopter assigned to HSM-74 “Swamp Foxes” declared an emergency about one hour into its flight from NAS Jacksonville.
The main transmission “chip light” had illuminated in the control panel – so the pilots reversed course back to the Hangar 1122 seawall.
