The intention
As an Apache pilot you want to prepare yourself as well as possible for combat situations by training in your own country.
The approach
In december 2007 perform your training flights in the Bommelerwaard. You accidentally break a high-voltage cable.
The result
50.000 households in the Tieler- and Bommelerwaard were without electricity for two days in the dark days before Christmas. But that led to the birth of in the municipality of Maasdriel in September 26 baby’s. That is 44 percent more than the monthly average of eighteen babies, said a municipal spokeswoman. And that's brilliant!
The lessons
Arrange spontaneous power failures more often to combat aging in the Netherlands.
