A helicopter crash in Barangay San Miguel, Guimba, claimed the life of a 25-year-old pilot on Saturday afternoon, February 1.
Guimba police chief Lt. Col. George Calaud Jr. identified the victim as Julia Flori Po, a resident of Parañaque City.
According to a Manila Bulletin report, citing Calaud, Po had flown from Bulacan before heading to Nueva Ecija. Authorities recovered her remains at the crash site, a swampy area where the aircraft, identified as RPC-3424, went down.
