WISCONSIN - Two people died and two others were injured after a helicopter and a gyrocopter collided in midair on Saturday at a Wisconsin airport that was hosting an air show, authorities said.

Mr Dick Knapinski, a spokesman for the association, said in a statement that the victims were attendees of the show and that their aircraft – a Rotorway 162F helicopter and an ELA 10 Eclipse gyrocopter – were “not involved in the air show.” The collision did not occur during the air show, a spokesman for the National Transportation Safety Board said.

The ELA 10 Eclipse gyrocopter – which looks like a small helicopter and flies at slow speeds – is described by its manufacturer as an “exclusive gyrocopter, with refined lines, high performance.”
