Tragic Accident Claims Three Lives During Honeymoon Flight
A British couple on their honeymoon, along with the helicopter’s Greek pilot, were killed when their chartered Bell 206 helicopter crashed near the heliport on the Greek island of Sifnos. The helicopter had departed from Markopoulo, near Athens, and was flying to Sifnos when it crashed on a hillside, sparking a fire that destroyed much of the aircraft. The cause of the accident is under investigation by the National Organisation for the Investigation of Air and Railway Accidents and Transport Safety. The incident was first reported by AeroTime.
