One method of collecting salt water crocodile eggs from nests in northern Australia is by slinging a collector person in a harness under a hovering Robinson 44 helicopter. Swamp access can be difficult and dangerous, and female crocs protect their progeny, both the eggs and the young. So a helo could be handy. Well might you ask the rhetorical "what could possibly go wrong?"
Quite a lot, if the helo runs out of fuel on the job. In fact it ended tragically.
Liked Christchurch, especially pre earthquake.
