During this time, the helicopter was inverted and into a spin while Joe Jack continued to fight to turn it upright. After a couple blinks of his eyes, the helicopter pilot discovered he was seeing two different pictures. The pilot Joe Hudgens was making enough racket to alert them he was still alive. A civilian rescue team soon arrived at the casualty point to assist the injured crew. As the injured helicopter crew was being assessed for emergency transport, another helicopter touched down in a very tight landing zone for pickup.
