Narrative:
An Enstrom F-28A, N520H, and an Enstrom 280C Shark, N280MG, were both destroyed following a mid-air collision and impact with terrain in Hammonton, New Jersey.
The Enstrom 280C burst into flames and the main fuselage was consumed by fire. The pilot was killed. The F-28A did not catch fire and the pilot survived with serious injuries.
ADS-B data shows that earlier in the day, at 0950 LT, the helicopters departed Vineland–Downstown Airport (28N) Vineland, New Jersey, and flew together northeast towards Hammonton Municipal Airport (N81), Hammonton, New Jersey. The helicopters were seen again southwest of N81 just a few seconds before the collision and in the general vicinity of each other. Both pilots were known to each other and flew together on weekly bases.
