The AS532 AL helicopter was performing a final verification flight before delivery. There were 6 EUROCOPTER employees aboard the helicopter who did not survive the accident. Initial findings made at the site of the accident indicate that the helicopter might have struck an electric line. The investigation is ongoing. It is headed by the BEAD (Air Defense Accident Investigation Board).
