    There is a time and place for it but early April in handy country isn't it. I would have been mighty grumpy. Hope the operator has his paper work in order....

    Whatever the ins and outs of that particular day, that guy has a really good attitude. Need more like him.

    Man that would suck. Looked like a nice deer. Do they get money from the meat?

    WARO is not allowed for 2 weeks either side of Easter, if its public land that guy was probably operating outside of his permit!

    2015 roar WARO closure dates 23 March to 9 April


    I saw a machine hunting the Okuru tops on the evening of the 23rd March and flying out a load... but didn't get ID.



    e: except Haast roar blocks apparently have a different set of dates this year, 29 March to 19 April, so never mind that one

    They could have offered him a lift back down.
    I thought the Robinsons had all been ground because of their reoccurring accidents? Obviously not anymore ?

    Some of the 44's with a specific model no. of rotor blade were temporarily grounded after the crash down Qtown way when rotor failure was initially suspected (later found not to be the case I believe), either until the grounding notice was removed a week later, or until an engineer checked over it. Definitely not all robbies.
