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.
