What happened
The pilot initiated an intentional autorotation toward a specific landing site at the destination airport. During the maneuver, the helicopter began to drift, making it difficult for the pilot to reach the intended touchdown point. Although the pilot intended to apply power to maintain control and reach the target, the aircraft did not respond as expected. Consequently, the pilot was unable to reduce the descent rate, resulting in the helicopter impacting the ground at the planned landing location.
The investigation
A post-accident inspection of the aircraft was conducted. The examination did not reveal any mechanical anomalies or malfunctions associated with the helicopter.
