Mumbai: <\/b><\/p>\n
Footage has surfaced of the Navy’s Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) that made an emergency landing<\/a> today off the Mumbai coast.<\/p>\n The ‘Dhruv’ helicopter deployed its emergency floating device which helped it to stay buoyant after making contact with water.<\/p>\n In the video, the chopper appears to be intact and efforts were made to salvage it. Three crew members in the helicopter were safely rescued.<\/p>\n The crew has put down the stricken helicopter admirably well. EFG inflated evenly. Rescue & salvage teams on the dot. The very first navy ALH ditching. Copybook.<\/p>\n I think the navy has all the evidence they need to nail this one.<\/p>\n (Video & pics via WhatsApp) pic.twitter.com\/Gq16coB3Fn<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Kaypius (@realkaypius) March 8, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The incident took place when the helicopter, which was on a routine sortie off Mumbai, ditched close to the coast.
