Coast Guard helicopter crash lands at SFO, two pilots suffer minor injuries

Initially saw this on Twitter. Depending on the source the helicopter was conducting a training run (NBC Bay Area) or on a routine maintenance flight (SFGate). Nonetheless, it made a hard landing and ended up on its side.

Both images from NBC Bay Area twitter (@nbcbayarea):

Damn, looks like a really hard landing. Glad the pilots are not hurt badly.
