National Post: How to land a helicopter lesson one: Do not land propellor first report in English:





A Bosnian army helicopter landed upside down when it crashed near the capital Sarajevo during a training flight on Thursday, injuring its three crew members, the defence ministry said.
“There were three crew members and they were all hospitalised in Sarajevo,” the ministry said in a statement.

The UH-1H helicopter went down near a highway in the region of Ilijas, some 20 kilometres (12 miles) northeast of Sarajevo. The cause of the crash was not immediately known.

An AFP photographer said the wreckage of the helicopter was lying upside down in a field, with its main rotor blades broken and the tail damaged.
