    Yeh, the pigs get finished off, but as soon as one is hit I immediately look for others, especially ones that may be breaking back under the chopper. I've had a few comments about the bumshot pigs in both vids, and should have probably omitted them in the absence of recording the follow up shot.

    I know what you mean by the shoot it, shoot it. Pity the shooter can't see them. That will change when Coxy gets to use our Pulsar Apex thermal riflescope. It will be far easier to nail them when they are hiding.

    Helicopter shooting is very productive, though a bit industrial. Good for pest control. We got into some goats near to Castle Rock Hut in the Kahurangi on the way back. It would be a bloody long walk to shoot some goats.

    I need to give full praise to Toby of Reid Helicopters in Wakefield. Top bloke and great pilot. It is a real honour to be involved with these guys. I'll be really sad when this op is over. I don't get paid for this, I do it for fun, the feeds, and the piss. Oh, and also for marketing purposes (waste of time trying to sell equipment if I don't use it myself). It is really cool staying at the old lighthouse homestead. I'm almost tempted to smuggle some pregnant sows back on to the Spit

    If you guys are looking for a good chopper company, phone Toby Reid. He'll put you on to some critters.
