Narrative: During the treatment of a vine, the tail of the helicopter touched a stake of vines. The pilot lost control of the helicopter which collided with the ground.
The pilot explained that during the spraying, he had to fly one meter above the vines. The helicopter was flying in the downward direction of the slope close to a wooded area on the edge of the plot to be treated. The pilot probably anticipated that he would have to climb over the wooded area before turning back.
