Similar in Norway many years ago involving the RAF or Army Air Corps(can't quite remember

Also, many years ago in South Germany, an AAC Lynx ended up on it's side in a snow landing. They were inserting an SF patrol on an exercise. The troops exited the wreckage checked that the crew were OK and moved out on their patrol.
