​It is very rare to hear about a mid-air collision of two helicopters which then land safely with no reported injuries of the five occupants. It happened Tuesday night, 22 November 2022, at Brown Field near San Diego in the US during a night training exercise that included two Blackhawk variants. One helicopter suffered damage to the main rotor and the other had damage to the rear stabilator, City of San Diego public information officer José Ysea said.
 
Ensign Bryan Blair, spokesperson for Commander, Naval Air Forces, issued the following statement, “On 22 November, an MH-60R Seahawk helicopter attached to Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron (HSM) 41 made an emergency landing at Brown Field in San Diego after experiencing a collision with a helicopter contracted by San Diego Gas and Electric during a flight for a night training event. Both aircraft landed safely and there were no injuries to personnel. The incident is under investigation.”
 
The second helicopter, a UH-60A Blackhawk, N160AQ, is contracted to SDG&E for fire fighting in the utility’s service area. An SDG&E official issued this statement regarding the incident: “We have been made aware of the incident by our contractor who owns and operates the aircraft and the most important thing is that all parties are safe.”
