Two helicopters collided in mid-air near Eura airport in south-west Finland, killing all five people on board.
The aircraft went down just after noon Saturday in a forest near the town of Kauttua, around 700 meters from a main road.
Finnish police say the victims included three people in one chopper and two in the other. Local media report both helicopters had flown from Estonia and were carrying businesspeople.
A witness told Finnish outlet Iltalehti that one helicopter struck the other during a maneuver, sending it crashing straight down.
The helicopters were reportedly heading to an aviation event. One was registered in Estonia, the other in Austria—both operated by Estonian companies NOBE and Eleon.
Finnish and Estonian authorities are now investigating the crash together.
