Grass Helicopters

I've heard of choppers used for weed eradication programs but something in the way of weed promotion on the Oz TV news tonight.

The Mareeba cops seized gold bars, wads of cash & a couple of choppers from some enterprising locals who were apaprently usin' the whirly birds to get to some dope they were growing in remote areas without vehicular access.

Yet another small business venture quashed by bureacracy I guess?

Nothing new, been going on for years, even here in the states. Eventually most of them get caught usually from getting a case of alcohol mouth(talking while drunk) or beating up the girlfriend/wife who goes direct to the Narcs.
