Wright was charged with three counts of attempting to pervert the course of justice after the February 2022 crash killed his Outback Wrangler co-star Chris "Willow" Wilson and left pilot Sebastian Robinson a paraplegic.
Mr Wilson's widow Dani took aim at Wright, 46, after he was found guilty of two counts by a Supreme Court jury in Darwin on Friday.
They failed to reach agreement on a third count after a four-week trial, with Acting Justice Allan Blow saying they were "hopelessly deadlocked".
Wright faces up to 15 years in jail when he is sentenced on October 6.
His legal team has already confirmed they will appeal the guilty verdicts.
"We'll keep just moving forward with this, but it's been devastating for everyone involved," Wright said outside court after his bail was extended.
He later said in a statement there were "no winners" from the trial.
"The ordeal has been incredibly tough on everyone and it's always been hard to understand why the focus of these investigations have been solely on me and not into the cause of the crash."
Mr Wilson's widow Dani hit out at Wright, saying the case had been about an individual who attempted to pervert the course of justice and in doing so "denied a complete, thorough and unimpeded investigation into the crash".
The charges against Wright did not relate to the cause of the accident and the prosecution did not allege he was responsible for the crash, Mr Wilson's death or Mr Robinson's injuries.
Ms Wilson said the verdicts were a step closer to justice being served, lessons learned and accountability upheld.
She said her two sons would soon spend their fourth Father's Day without their dad.
"Once again there will be an empty seat at the table, a constant reminder of all that has been taken from us," she said, reading a statement outside court.
"In the midst of our grief we are comforted by the fact that Willow is with God in heaven."
The crash occurred during a crocodile-egg collecting trip in Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory, with Mr Wilson slung on a line below the chopper to drop onto croc nests in remote swampland.
The Air Transport Safety Bureau concluded the helicopter ran out of fuel, causing the engine to shut down and the machine to crash to the ground.
Wright was accused of lying to crash investigators about the amount of fuel in the machine, of trying to get Mr Robinson to falsify flying hours and of asking a friend to "torch" the helicopter's maintenance release.
The jury could not reach agreement on the third count which regarded the "torch" claim.
Prosecutors alleged Wright was worried investigators would learn his choppers' meters were regularly disconnected to extend flying hours beyond official thresholds and paperwork was falsified to match.
Senior defence counsel David Edwardson KC worked hard to focus blame on Mr Robinson, who was painted as a cocaine-trafficking "party animal".
Mr Edwardson accused Mr Robinson, his mother and two brothers of colluding when they gave evidence Wright had asked at the injured pilot's hospital bedside for him to falsify flying hours.
Their aim, he alleged, was to put the focus on Wright in order to avoid serious charges against Mr Robinson.
Outside court on Friday, Mr Robinson's brother Zac Chellingworth read a statement from the pilot saying the verdicts brought some closure for the family "but the scars of the defendant's conduct are huge and permanent".
Mr Robinson revealed he carried the "immense grief" of losing his mate, saying the trauma for his family had been relentless as he learnt to live in a wheelchair.
The wounds were made worse by the defendant's cover-up and failure to tell the truth, he said.
"I also faced a malicious and sustained campaign of lies aimed at destroying my reputation and that of my family. The jury saw the truth."
