The EC 130B4 helicopter took off on a corporate flight from HSIA for Godagari of Rajshahi District with a PIC plus four passengers on board. It landed in Godagari at 07:00 UTC. The weather was cloudy with occasional heavy rain.
Thereafter, the helicopter took off from Godagari at 08:40 UTC with six passengers (the additional two were on board from Godagari). Immediately after take-off at around 60-70 feet height, the helicopter made a sharp swing to the right with a nose-down attitude with a puff of smoke coming out of the exhaust, apparently due to a suspected engine failure. The helicopter crash-landed hitting the pillars of a building under construction.
The helicopter was damaged beyond economic repair.
The pilot and all passengers survived with very minor injuries.
CONCLUSIONS
(a) All the damage observed during the examination of the aircraft and the engine, are the consequences of the crash sequence.
(b) No evidence of pre-crash failure or discrepancy has been observed during the complete examination of the aircraft and the engine.
