March 27, 6:29 pm
A helicopter crashed in Levone, in the province of Turin, while it was simulating an emergency maneuver. The 2 pilots on board were wounded. They were instructor Claudio Rapello, 49 years of Ronco Canavese and the student pilot Antonio Sodo Migliori, 48 years old, from Rome. They were admitted to the hospital.
During the maneuver the Robinson 22 rotor lost speed causing loss of altitude. The instructor would have fractured some vertebrae, but was practically unharmed instead of the aspiring pilot."
