| Chopper in emergency sea landing |
A surf rescue helicopter went into the sea just offshore of the Groot Brakrivier near Mossel Bay in South Africa around 13:00 on Tuesday, the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) said.
Spokesperson Craig Lambinon said the aircraft ended up in the surf and all 4 men onboard then got out safely.
They were taken to hospital as a precaution. The pilot was reported to have minor injuries.
It was not immediately clear what led to the incident. Lambinon said there was "extensive" damage to the helicopter and the Civil Aviation Authority had been contacted to conduct a routine investigation.
