(Smoketown) — Authorities will try to find out what caused a helicopter to roll over onto its side after landing at a midstate airport.
No injuries were reported.
The Federal Aviation Administration says the Robinson R22 helicopter rolled onto its side and into the grass after landing at Smoketown Airport at 11:15 a.m. Monday.
The airport manager told WGAL-TV that the helicopter was being used for training, and it came down a little hard in the wind and tipped over. The manager said an instructor and student on board were unhurt.
