The Ministry of Defence has temporarily suspended all training for its fleet of Apache AH-64 helicopters pending the outcome of the investigation of one which crash-landed on Thursday afternoon.
Training for the Republic of Singapore Air Force's (RSAF) Sikorsky S-70B Seahawk naval helicopters, which have similar engines as the Apache AH-64 helicopters, will also be on hold, said a Mindef statement on Thursday night.
The precautionary measures came after an Apache Ah-64 chopper made an emergency landing at an open field between Woodlands Ave 12 and Woodlands Dr 64 at about 3.30 pm on Thursday.
