Interesting footage allegedly shows Mil Mi-14PL right before it crash landed in Syria.

On Mar. 22, a Syrian Navy Mil Mi-14PL anti-submarine warfare helicopter crash landed following a technical failure, in northwestern Syria near Idlib.

According to the first reports four crew members survived the incident and were captured by the Nusra Front and Islamic faction close to the capsized wreckage. One of the pilot was reportedly executed on site.

Now a video allegedly filmed inside the doomed helicopter was posted on Youtube. The clip was probably shot with one of the crew member’s smartphones captured by the opposition fighters.

It shows the cockpit, the operator’s console, radar, flight instruments (including an altimeter showing 5,000 meters). One of the pilots can be seen using a tablet and a handheld GPS.
