Police Chasing Helicopter in the Sydney area

Qoute:

"Police in outer western Sydney are apparently hot on the trail of a turbine helicopter and it's occupants, involved in several alleged unauthorised landings and takeoffs from the southernmost edge of Prospect Reservoir Friday 9th July, around 3pm.

The helicopter has apparently been sighted by Sydney Water security officers at the Reservoir on numerous earlier dates, allegedly doing the same thing as it did yesterday.

Security officers have apparently had to unlock three gates to get to the area where the machine sets down, only to have it become airborne before they can get to it to speak to the pilot. Security have provided certain distinct identification marks and other details relating to the helicopter to the investigating Police, and the officers are now following up on that information. The Police believe they may soon be able to positively identify the aircraft. The Police have spoken to numerous industry persons, and have even interviewed air traffic controllers re possible radio transmissions, and radar returns emitted by the aircraft in the area."

Original Source unknown i found it on another thread not in this forum
