Layang Layang Aerospace Sdn Bhd berkata pendaratan dalam video tular hanyalah langkah berjaga-jaga.
A helicopter involved in an incident near the residential area of Sri Pertiwi in Kidurong, Bintulu, was not involved in a distress landing or a medical evacuation, according to the pilot. Shahdon Poong, responsible for Layang Layang Aerospace Sdn Bhd, clarified that the aircraft was not conducting any service for the Ministry of Health or the Sarawak Health Department during the landing.
He explained that the emergency landing was a precautionary measure and not a distress landing. "The air traffic controller in Bintulu informed about the situation during the landing," he stated in a statement. Poong also confirmed that the pilot and two technicians were in good condition upon landing, with no reported injuries.
Earlier, Bintulu Police Chief Nixon Joshua Ali reported that a medical evacuation helicopter had a minor technical issue while flying from Sibu to Miri and was heading to Miri to join a display program when the incident occurred around 3.20 pm.
