A search is underway this morning for a helicopter missing in the central North Island.
The Robinson R22 took off from Taupo with two people on board around lunchtime yesterday.
Police and the National Rescue Co-ordination Centre are asking for help from members of the public for any information on the chopper, which has the call sign HXT.
It is the second helicopter to go missing recently, with the search for a Hughes helicopter that disappeared in the Milford Sound area called off yesterday morning. The pilot and an English tourist aboard have not been found.
