🇩🇿Helicopter incidents in Algeria

This database records 15 helicopter incidents in Algeria, the earliest in 2010 and the most recent in 2024. The worst single year was 2017, with 4 incidents.

34 deaths across 9 fatal accidents, which is 60% of all incidents recorded here. Every other accident in Algeria was survived by everyone on board. The deadliest was on 2016-03-27 at near Reggane, which killed 12.

The most frequently recorded type is the Mil Mi-171 with 3 incidents, followed by the Bell 206L-3 with 3. That reflects how many of each type fly in Algeria rather than how safe they are.

Where a cause has been established, the most common is wire strikes, in 4 accidents, then mechanical failure in 3. Many records carry no established cause, either because the investigation is open or because none was published.
