Surfers Jumping from Hovering Helicopter
Just been watching the news and witnessed a couple of surfers jumping from a hovering AS350 in Southern California for what I believe to be Billabong surfing competition.
In good, old Oz this practice (with the exception of obtaining a dispensation or being the police airwing), especially if beamed around the world, would encounter the wrath of our local "friendly" CASA Flying Operations Inspector.
I was wondering if some of our American comrades could enlighten me as to the legality of the above practice.
