Collided with hight trees between Listvyanka and Bolshaya Rechka.
The cause of the crash was the PIC's unpreparedness to fly on this type of helicopter and the incorrect decision to perform an unauthorized flight by ATM authorities at night, in a mountainous non-reference woodland, at an altitude significantly lower than safe for actual flight conditions.
Possible contributing factors were:
- failure to use a dangerous height transmitter on a radio altimeter;
- loss by the pilot of the spatial orientation of the roll due to insufficient experience flying in a helicopter with a direct indication of the angle of heel at the horizon.
