The engine of the helicopter failed at an altitude of about 4m AGL. The helicopter crashed to the ground and rolled over. The flight instructor and the flight student escaped uninjured.
Bea report:
--------------
3 - CONCLUSION
The engine power lost is due to the failure of a spark plug. It is possible that a pre-existent damage or a defect of the spark plug led to the die-crimping of the insulating material and afterward to its ejection by hot gases of the combustion chamber of the cylinder.
Aircrafts flying under the CNSK regulation can use spare parts not planned for an aeronautical use.
Their installation and the exploitation of the aircraft are of the responsibility of the owner of the aircraft.
The length of skates contributed to the rolled over of the helicopter.
