19 killed in Ukrainian helicopter crash into Black Sea
2008-04-29
(Xinhua) -- A Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopter crashed into the Black Sea on Monday, killing 19 people on board, and the lone survivor was seriously injured.
Note to self: Never, ever fly anything Ukrainian.
The crash happened when the helicopter's tail struck part of an offshore platform operated by the Ukrainian state oil and gas company Blackseanaftogaz, to which the aircraft belonged, the Interfax-Ukraine news agency quoted company spokesman Yuri Avdeev as saying.
