RSAF Apache crash: Update

Likely that remaining Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) Apaches will be grounded pending investigation, possibly Seahawks too as they use the same engine. A wild guess, not based on any special info.

If it's due to multiple engine failure that forces it down, then it could be a blessing in disguise. Guessed the auto-rotation pretty much saved the flight crew. Imagine the tail section coming off in mid-air!

Spotted a Seahawk flying over Defu Lane this morning. Grounding order is lifted?
