Agusta brought this new A109C, N1WD, to Toronto in August 1990 to show it to prospective customers. Demo flights were conducted from Toronto Island Airport (CYTZ) where it was photographed flying past the CN Tower. The helicopter was purchased by Leffler Transportation Company. Crashed in eastern Pennsylvania on at 19:05 local time on Jan. 18, 1995 on a flight from Williamsport, PA (IPT) to a company heliport in Richland, PA (PS96) killing the pilot and two employees. Flew IFR to Harrisburg, then VFR when it entered low clouds. Probable cause: spatial disorientation, darkness and poor weather.
