"Viareggio, 3 May 2013
The private helicopter was landing in the field in via della Bozzana when it was knocked over on its side . The pilot, a 65-year-old viareggio entrepreneur who is part of a flying sports association, has remained unharmed. Firefighters, carabinieri and police intervened on the spot."
Helicopter presumably repaired, as photographed flying again in 24/8/2013 (see links #3,#4 and #6)
