District police chief Abu Bakar Mokhtar said the accident, which occurred northeast of Kuching, the Sarawak state capital, on Friday injured American pilot David William Bergin and killed co-pilot William Charles Scoot. "Our investigations so far show that the two were piloting a helicopter carrying logs in the area when the accident happened and Scoot, an American national, was killed in the crash," Abu Bakar told AFP. "We are not sure what caused the helicopter to crash and are still carrying out investigations but it is difficult as the area is very hard to reach," he added. Police said the two pilots were employees of heavylifting and heli-logging company Erickson Air-Crane and had been hired by the Samling timber company to haul timber from a remote region in the state's interior. Bergin, 49, from New Terra Meadow, Oregon, told The New Straits Times newspaper from his hospital bed that he remembered only his helicopter going into an uncontrollable spin before it crashed. He then woke up in a vehicle while being treated for his injuries. "That's all I could recall. It happened in a flash," the paper quoted Bergin as saying and confirming that his co-pilot Scoot, 51, from Meridian, Mississippi had been killed in the crash. Abu Bakar said Scoot's body had been flown to Sarawak where a post-mortem has been carried out. Authorities were now working with the US Embassy to have the pilot's body flown home.
