The condition of the instructor is serious.
It was a training flight from Rahwali base, the instructor was from Pak Navy on deputation to army while the student was a Captain from Army.
The crash doesn't look to be too serious though...maybe it was a hard impact.
Helicopter was a S-300 as I previously said.

269C is a model, just like Mi-17 V5 or V1 etc, S-300 is the basic name,
The instructor (naval officer on deputation) has now been shifted to CMH Pindi, received some fractures.
Wish him a speedy recovery.
