In Italian,
Fiumicino: precipita elicottero, un morto
Un tecnico canadese della Eriksson ha perso la vita. Gli altri membri dell'equipaggio, compreso il pilota, sono rimasti feriti: due in condizioni gravi, uno in maniera lieve. Il Sikorsky S 64 č precipitato subito dopo il decollo. Nell'aeroporto arrivi e partenze sono regolari
Roma, 6 luglio 2005 - Un elicottero del Corpo forestale dello Stato č precipitato subito dopo essersi alzato in volo all'aeroporto di Fiumicino Nell'incidente č morto un tecnico canadese della Eriksson, Martiy Erikson, 49 anni, mentre gli altri membri dell'equipaggio, compreso il pilota della Forestale,
Floriano Finamoresono, sono rimasti feriti: due in condizioni gravi, l'ultimo in maniera lieve.
L'elicottero, un Sikorsky S 64, era decollato dall'area denominata Wisky, una piazzola remota, lontano dalle piste dei voli civili. Dunque arrivi e partenze all'aeroporto di Fiumicino sono regolari. Il mezzo inoltre, non era operativo. I pezzi del velivolo erano giunti da poco dagli Stati Uniti e assemblati in Italia e doveva essere trasportato da Fiumicino a Ciampino per essere ricoverato nell'hangar del Corpo Forestale dello Stato.
Intanto l'Agenzia nazionale per la sicurezza del volo, Ansv, appena appresa la notizia ha inviato sul posto un proprio investigatore. "Anche se si sta valutando la natura giuridica dell'aeromobile - afferma l'Ansv in una nota - l'Agenzia nazionale sicurezza al volo metterā a disposizione degli inquirenti il proprio potenziale tecnico e i propri laboratori per appurare le cause tecniche dell'incidente".
Oltre all'inchiesta tecnica aperta dall'Ansv anche la magistratura e il corpo forestale hanno avviato accertamenti. ''E' giā in corso un'inchiesta della magistratura e in fase d'avvio un'indagine interna della forestale per risalire alle cause dell'incidente''. Lo ha comunicato il capo del Corpo Forestale, Cesare Patrone, che dopo aver appreso la notizia dell'incidente si č recato sul luogo della sciagura. Patrone, che si č detto profondamente commosso per l'accaduto, ha espresso la sua solidarietā ai feriti e alle loro famiglie.

Southern Oregon man dies in helicopter crash
07/07/2005
Associated Press
A helicopter crash in Italy killed an Erickson Air-Crane mechanic and injured three other people, a company official said.
Marty Erickson, 49, of Rogue River died. Erickson pilot Chris Woods, 31, of Washington state, Erickson mechanic Troy Niemeyer, 30, of Eagle Point and Italian pilot Floriano Finmore, 50, sustained minor injuries in Wednesday's crash, said Dennis Hubbard, the company spokesman.
Details were sketchy on how the crash occurred. Hubbard could not confirm an Italian newspaper report that said the helicopter went down five minutes after taking off from a Rome airport.
The helicopter was built by Erickson Air-Crane in Central Point for use by the Italian forest service. The helicopters are equipped for firefighting with a 2,650-gallon tank system and foam cannon.
Hubbard said Erickson was not related to the Central Point company's founders.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation, Hubbard said.

Very sad, and less than a year after their last crash in Corsica last year.
