Italian helo crashes into lake


Unfortunately, these days air shows and crashes seem to go hand in hand. This particular accident happened on Sunday at the Bracciano Lake in Italy in front of the Italian Air Force Museum, at Vigna di Valle airport. Sadly, Cap Filippo Fornassi of 1 Gr Sq of the Italian Army based in Viterbo last his life. The 2 other individuals on board the NH-90 helicopter were severly injured, but rescued. It looks like they were coming out of some sort of a loop when the helo got a little too close to the water.
