Fatal civilian helicopter crash Beccles

Four confirmed dead in helicopter crash
13 March 2131Z

Four people are confirmed dead after a helicopter crashed in Norfolk.

Police said a civilian aircraft with four people on board had crashed in Gillingham, near Beccles, at about 19:30 Z.

Emergency services remain on scene and a cordon around the site is in place.

Wx reported as being fog.
Sky News report airframe as being Agusta Westland. AW139 perhaps.
Not good. RIP

Speculation warning.

If it is him, he owns G-LBAL an AW139 and there is a stately home near the scene that is a magnet for VIP helicopters.
