The two pilots and the Flight Engineer of a SAAF Agusta A109 LUH helicopter drowned today when their helicopter crashed today.

 The helicopter, from 17 Squadron temporarily based at Swartkop, crashed in the Woodstock Dam near Bergville, Kwazulu-Natal, at midday today.

It was part of a group of three (?) helicopters on their way to a mountain exercise in the Dragon's Peak area of the Drakensberg mountains.
