One of the greatest enemies of helicopters, due to the fact that they fly frequently at low altitude, are the cables of electrical lines.<\/p>\n

To avoid accidents in the event of collisions with these cables, many helicopters have had cable cutters for decades<\/strong> on the front of their fuselage. But what happens when the collision occurs with the blades of the helicopter? This is a very dangerous situation<\/strong> in which the helicopter can become entangled in power lines and crash.<\/p>\n

This Sunday afternoon, August 20, one of the three PZL Mielec S-70i Black Hawk helicopters of the Polish Police<\/strong>, a version of the famous Sikorsky UH-60 helicopter made under license in Poland, was flying low near Ciechan\u00f3w, in Masovian Voivodeship<\/strong>, on the occasion of a popular meeting to celebrate the 103rd anniversary of the Battle of Sarnow\u0105 G\u00f3r\u0105. Apparently, the pilot did not notice the proximity of a high-voltage power line and ended up cutting one of the cables with the main rotor<\/strong>, as we can see in this video broadcast by the Polish radio station RMF FM<\/a>:<\/p>\n
