While landing near a cottage on the shore of Lac Sucrerie, the main rotor on the helicopter registered C-FHSN touched some tree branches. The pilot then decided to land the helicopter at another location, but while manoeuvring above the water, the helicopter lost altitude and the descent could not be stopped. It crashed in 2 ft of water before falling on its left side. Nobody was injured.
