You just have to look at the comments and upset Aucklanders who were "scared" when the helicopter flew oh so close to the Sky Tower on a photo shoot

Funny, I wonder if the company that has sour grapes ever got their toolbox back when it fell out of the heli and into the city.
What kind of flying caused that? hmmmm
Ghostchups....nice way to make friends in this industry. Unless it had an effect on your personal safety, why even bother bringing it up?
First post on Prune and your causing trouble? Well first post under this user name I guess.
Yawn.
