Investigation into the two-seater that fell into the sea on the beach of Minturno

An investigation has been opened into the accident that occurred this morning at the Minturno marina.

And after the images were shared by some users, Green Party MP Francesco Emilio Borrelli also asked for clarity on the incident "since only by chance did it not turn into a tragedy".

A two-seater autogyro flying on the beach of Marina di Minturno fell into the water a few meters from the shore. The pilot, rescued by swimmers, emerged from the water unharmed and no one was injured.

“I asked – Borrelli continued – that not only the reasons for the sudden landing of the aircraft be clarified, whether they were due to a mechanical failure or the pilot's inexperience and whether it is normal to fly over such low altitudes and so close to highly crowded places such as the beaches on the coast.

According to witnesses who spend their holidays in Minturno, the passage of ultralight aircraft, two-seater autogyros, and motorized paragliders is a constant.

Especially at low altitude and over the heads of bathers. A growing phenomenon on various beaches along the coasts of the entire country. Strict controls are needed on the safety of those who fly them and of the people on board with punctual checks - concludes the parliamentarian - of compliance with the rules set out in the flight codes and of possession of the necessary pilot licenses".
