Pilot is one of several SAPS students training at Starlight.Student was on a solo low-flying exercise.Student is fine, with only a few scratches but R22 a wite-off.It was fresh out of a re-biuld. ZS-RBT which crashed in September was also piloted by SAPS student whilst on a solo navigation exercise.Clutch light came on and student eneterd autorotation but did not flare at the end.
