WANDERING RIVER, Alta. (CP) -- A helicopter on its way to an oilfield site has crashed in northern Alberta.
Transportation and safety officials confirm the chopper went down about 8 a.m. near Wandering River after taking off from Plamondon.
It is unclear how badly the pilot, who was alone, may have been injured.
Fire official Jack McEvoy says the pilot was able to communicate on a cellphone after the helicopter crashed.
It is not known what caused the aircraft owned by Great Slave Helicopters to go down. _________________ Serving the Civil Helo Industry - www.heliopsmag.com
