An Army student pilot was airlifted to a hospital for additional evaluation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dale County Coroner John Cawley identified the deceased instructor pilot as Daniel Munger, 46, a contractor and retired service member.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Military authorities did not immediately provide information about the circumstances of the crash. The statement said the accident is under investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur primary concern is the welfare and health of the student pilot and care and concern for the family of the deceased,\u201d Maj. Gen. Clair A. Gill, U.S. Army Aviation Center of Excellence and Fort Novosel commanding general, said in a statement emailed to The Associated Press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In April the Army ordered a six-month aviation \u201csafety stand up\u201d requiring additional aviation training across the force. That move followed a dozen mishaps \u2014 resulting in 10 fatalities \u2014 in the first six months of the fiscal year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.armytimes.com\/news\/your-army\/2024\/04\/10\/army-pushes-more-safety-training-as-helicopter-crashes-spike\/\" target=\"_blank\">Army Times previously reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ve seen a troubling trend with our accident rates,\u201d Maj. Gen. Walter Rugen, director of Army aviation, said on a call with reporters in April. \u201cCertainly, any loss of life is 100% unacceptable and obviously when we have [an] accident where we lose the aircraft or severely damage the aircraft, we consider that unacceptable, too.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Class A mishap, under Army definitions, is any which results in the loss of life or the loss of equipment totaling more than $2.5 million. The service records the rate of Class A mishaps per 100,000 flight hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rate as of April was 3.22, more than double the highest rate of any fiscal year in more than a decade, according to<a href=\"https:\/\/safety.army.mil\/\" target=\"_blank\"> readiness center data<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The AH-64 Apache is a two-person aircraft. Fort Novosel was previously known as Fort Rucker. It is the Army\u2019s primary training facility for helicopter pilots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><i>The Associated Press contributed to this
