AN Army Black Hawk helicopter on a training flight was forced to land at a park in Sydney's north west this afternoon. A Department of Defence spokesman said the helicopter had to make a "precautionary landing" after a warning light lit up in the cabin, The Daily Telegraph reported.
"The crew then followed standard operating procedures and called possible assistance necessary and subsequently landed the Black Hawk," the spokesman said. They landed at Headen Park in Thornleigh about 5.30pm where a maintenance team has been sent to investigate why the warning light had activated. No one was injured and there was no damage to the helicopter as a result of the landing.
