http://www.thehindu.com/news/states/other-states/article3839607.ece![]() Two MI-17 helicopters of the Indian Air Force collided in mid-air in Gujarat’s Saurashtra region on Thursday, killing all nine IAF personnel aboard. The collision occurred over Sarmat village, when the personnel were on a routine training mission. Each of the helicopters, which took off from the nearby Jamnagar airbase, carried a pilot, a co-pilot and two other trainees. One of them also carried a training officer practising target bombing. This is the first time two IAF helicopters collided in mid-air and fourth crash this year involving IAF aircraft. |
