Chopper crashes at Archerfield airport | News.com.au

THREE people have escaped a helicopter crash with minor injuries. The chopper crashed at Archerfield airport in Brisbane's southside around midday (AEST) today.
A Department of Community Safety spokeswoman said it was unclear whether the chopper was taking off or landing when it hit the ground hard.
The crash sparked a small fire which fire crews extinguished immediately, she said.
The pilot and two passengers were taken to hospital with minor injuries.
Aviation authorities will be investigating the cause of the crash.
 
Minor detail according to the news tonight, its the second serious crash in a year for the pilot, not the best run of luck !
