I think this is the same accident:
PATTERSON, La. The U-S Coast Guard says two men on a helicopter that crashed today into the water 20 miles southeast of here were rescued.
The Coast Guard says the oil company helicopter crashed this morning because of motor problems shortly after taking off from the Abbeville Airport.
The Coast Guard says that before crashing from a height of 3,000 feet, the helicopter had just enough time to make a mayday call. The helicopter managed to make a controlled landing on the water, which allowed the men to get onto a life raft.
A Coast Guard helicopter was dispatched from New Orleans and picked them up. The two men were reportedly in good condition.
