Helipro New Zealand seconds away from causing mid air disaster ....

Hi all,

fast roping has its risks and own dynamics.
Dropping the rope isn't liked by ship captains, they fear it gets into the screw.
Second reason not to drop is the attached ring, which needs checking/replacing after dropping.
Stupid to have a sack attached, only a matter of time until it goes into the tail rotor.
They should do without.
