Helicopter crash kills six people in Russia’s Khabarovsk
Sat Aug 15, 2015
At least six people have lost their lives in a transport helicopter crash in Russia’s far-eastern Khabarovsk region.
The Mil Mi-8 copter with 13 passengers and three crew members on board fell in the Sea of Okhotsk on Saturday afternoon, an official with the Russian emergencies ministry said.
The helicopter crew did not communicate with air traffic control tower at the expected time; therefore, a search and rescue mission was launched for the copter.
The helicopter of the Vostok Aviation Company made a flight between two settlements. On board were three members of the crew and 13 passengers.
The helicopter was due to arrive in the final destination by 10:20 Moscow time, but the crew did not communicate in due course. After that,
two Mi-8 helicopters and an Antonov-26 aircraft began searching for the missing helicopter.
The official noted that the captain later used a satellite phone “to report that six people were killed and ten others survived the crash," adding that the survivors managed to get to the shore on their own.
