You might want to refrain from becoming an air crash investigator The tailboom has rotated through 180 degrees and both the bottom part of the fenestron and the skids have sheared off the airframe. Total write off.

No pictures or post have popped up yet confirming it as far as I can find

T-355 was active on the 7th, so should not be a candidate.

The helicopter crashed roughly 600m NW of Alpnach's runway 19, right next to the Pilatus Bahn railroad leading up the mountain. The roads you see are highway 8 and the Brunigerstrasse. Lake is the Alpnacher See.

It received a large tail sticker for the RAFL media day static display.

And the ramps are pretty full here, the comment about space might be correct. Still room for six jets across from the Polish F-16s, next to the Rafales. The five Portuguese F-16s are parked at the small ramp between the large ramp and the runway that normally holds 12 jets. The four Italians are pa...
