Thank you, Jo. It was a typing error. It is definitively debris.
With best regards,

derbies -> debris
Oleksiy's attention was drawn to that airport because of the tragic
fatality. He noticed the tower was not mapped, so he mapped it.
Cheers,
Jo

Dear Armstrong, please be aware that Oleksiy is no native english
speaker. In his culture and language that is probably not what he
is saying.
Kind regards,
Milo van der Linden

Are you saying you think an aviation accident could have been
avoided if OSM data was better? I've been an air traffic
controller for 38 years. Aviation hazards, such as towers at
airports, are well charted on navigational charts and airport
diagrams which pilots are required to use. A pilot would never
use OSM as a means of avoiding ground hazards at an airport.
Besides, this particular accident happened at 10:00 A.M. local
time, meaning it was daylight. The vast majority of aviation
accidents are the result of pilot error. If a helicopter pilot
allows his rotor blades to collide with a clearly visible
object, that is negligence on the captain's part.

today's tragic helicopter accident in Bavaria Good
evening, There was an helicopter accident at the airport
Flugplatz Haßfurt-Schweinfurt. One man from the ground
staff was killed by derbies when helicopter's propeller
blades touched the control tower. On the news video [1]
and on the aerial image of the airport [2] it is clearly
visible that the tower building is not in the same row
with other buildings, it is a bit outstanding. This tower
was not mapped neither on the Google maps, nor on the OSM.
I mapped it by now on the OSM:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/50.01720/10.52705
<https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/50.01720/10.52705>
with the tag: tower:type=aircraft_control, which has got a
nice map icon. In general, towers, not only
aircraft_control, but also communication, and others, are
well visible even from far away, and could serve as good
landmarks. That is why it makes sense to map towers. [1]
