Other details of the crash were not immediately available, but the cause will be addressed in a post-accident investigation by the Army Combat Readiness Center, Pennell said. That investigative team is expected to arrive later this week.
The Apache was one of four from the 25th Attack Battalion at Fort Wainwright, which is near Fairbanks, traveling to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage for training. The four helicopters stopped in Talkeetna to refuel.
Talkeetna is located about 110 miles north of Anchorage.
