Helipro near miss

I doubt very much that this was a planned manouvre having flown this sort of insertion u would expect the first Heli to manouvre fwd to allow the second insertion a fast and safe entry. Good old NZ doing things the cheap and nasty by having a local charter company do what anywhere else in the world would be done by the military or Police machines. Helipro Pilot sudden rush of blood to the head it seems and all very lucky to escape....quick reaction by westpac pilot though glad it was not a contact
