That is a great shot XXX!

You wouldn't be lifting 1000 kg very far in a Longranger. If insurance permits I'd be getting a 214 or even a Dauphin down from Sydney to lift it out. It requires a bit of prep though, just to minimise weight and ensure the 'van doesn't try to 'fly' while being underslung. De-fuel, seats out, lift spoilers on the wings etc.
