Pilot survives helicopter crash, Melbourne
How Did She Walk Away From This? A pilot made a frantic scramble for safety after crashing her helicopter in the city last night. The experienced pilot, 45, had been taking VIP racegoers to and from Flemington racecourse when she crashed just after taking off from an oval at the Collingwood Football Club’s Olympic Park base about 6.30pm. The pilot had just returned to Batman Avenue in the city from Derby Day with a load of passengers.
She is believed to have been on her way to Moorabbin airport. But moments after takeoff, the Bell chopper lurched to its side. The force of the impact sent part of a rotor blade through a nearby marquee and crashed into a parked car 30m away at the rear parking lot. The rest of the helicopter rolled and smashed onto the ground, scattering fuel and debris.
