During a flying display on January 21 2015, a Sud Aviation/Aérospatiale SA-316B Alouette IIIA helicopter rotor severs its tail during a maneuver. The helicopter belonged to the National Angolan Air Force (FAN) at Saurimo (Lunda Sul). The display was a part of the celebrations of the 39th anniversary of the Angolan Air Force. The pilot and co-pilot of the helicopter survived.
