INDONESIA – An Airbus H130 helicopter crash in Indonesia’s Sekadau regency on Thursday killed all 8 on board, according to local authorities on Friday.

The aircraft was carrying six passengers, a pilot and a co-pilot when it crashed in the country’s West Kalimantan province.

The helicopter departed from Melawi regency at 7.34 am local time (0034GMT) and lost contact at 8.39 am.

“All victims have been confirmed dead,” Jakarta Globe quoted a Sekadau police official as saying.

Rescue teams reached the crash site later the same day, but evacuation efforts were hindered by difficult terrain and low visibility.
