Two Airbus H145M helicopters of the Hungarian Air Force were conducting a training exercise in Croatian airspace when one of the aircraft with three people on board crashed near Pakova, Å ibenik-Knin County, Central Croatia. Rescue teams found two bodies while the search for the third airman is under way. Eventually a third body was located at the crash site.
It appears that the helicopter flew into the Å ibenik Zipline, a 1.4 km long zipline that is located over the ÄŒikola river canyon. It starts from a height of 120m and ends at 30m. There are also powerlines located in the canyon.
