MINNEAPOLIS — A boy about 6 years old climbed into a Mayo Clinic helicopter at an air show near Mankato and fired up the engine, setting off a tense scene on the tarmac until a worker removed the child and shut off the chopper, a witness said Monday.

The incident occurred Saturday afternoon on the first day of the Minnesota Air Spectacular at the Mankato Regional Airport.

The whirring rotor blades knocked over a large sun shield on the tarmac, and two people were hit and slightly injured by the fabric-like screen, according to a statement released by Mayo.

He just wanted to give it a whirl and take it for a spin.

A 6 year old can figure out how to start a helicopter but an adult can't figure out how to film in landscape.

Sounds like little Timmy's parents suck at parenting.

My kid is six. That kid must be a little retarded or something. Zero chance my kid would do that and my kid does stupid things all the time.

That kid should have been on one of those horrible leash bags.
