Yeah the machine is an ex Bristow ,now owned by Rocketlab in NZ , planning to catch the rocket on re-entry and sling it to land to reduce damage to the rocket and allow it to be re-used again quicker and cheaper. I wish them luck but am a bit worried about the stress of the sudden increase in weight on the rotor and airframe.
