An MD-520MG Light Attack Helicopter of the Philippine Air Force (PAF) crashed in Bohol recently, killing one of its four Occupants. 

These single engined aircraft were acquired in the 1990s, so they are old already with 3 decades of service with the PAF. 

But they seem to be pretty durable, with the last aircraft that was lost due to a crash was back in 2002, or 19 years ago as per the Aviation Safety Network (ASN).
