The pilot was moving personnel and equipment for erecting power line pylons for Vattenfall. To avoid taking off over parked cars, he turned the helicopter while hovering, whereupon the tail rotor struck a radio hut and was lost. He was forced to set the helicopter down, and the landing was so hard the landing gear broke.
