Two weeks from today we hope to get some answers from the National Transportation Security Board on what exactly happened to Kobe and Gianna Bryant in last years crash. The agency will hold a hearing on February 9th in DC to discuss what they know. They've already ruled out engine and mechanical failure.

Brightside's Thuy Lan Nguyen takes you beyond the headline with what we know about the crash now.

Kobe Bryant's helicopter took off from John Wayne Airport at 9:06 in the morning on route to Bryant's Mamba Academy in Thousand Oaks.

The Sikorsky S-76B chopper made its way north just southeast of Burbank. The pilot requested to fly through controlled air space under special visual flight rules due to heavy fog.

Due to heavy air traffic, the pilot circled for 12 minutes until special V.F.R. was granted. It continued through Burbank and Van Nuys air space flying at 1,400 feet before heading south and then west. The pilot requested flight following or radar assistance from air traffic control.

4 minutes later the pilot advised they were climbing to avoid a cloud layer.
He climbed to 2,300 feet, before beginning a left descending turn. Air traffic controllers never heard from the chopper again.

The chopper dropped at a rate of 2,000 feet per minute. NTSB investigators say the chopper crashed into a mountain. The impact zone 1,085 feet above sea level. The investigation shows the pilot missed clearing the mountain by 20-30 feet.
