Pilot error lead to helicopter crash that killed two Australian soldiers in Afghanistan

Two Australian soldiers from the 2nd Commando Regiment were killed last year when their helicopter crashed in Afghanistan. An inquiry report cites poor weather and pilot error as key factors.

They were carrying out a planned special forces raid in Helmand Province on August 30 when the pilots crashed the helicopter while landing.
