Criminal that we are not still heli-logging the Coast in a coordinated and sustainable way. RIP Best Coast: When coal is banned, all you'll have left is a few dairy cows to milk, and tourism. :(

was the helicopter the Russian heavy lift jobs from Taupo, I saw those choppers with Alan beck some years ago at the Taupo airfield, The story Alan told us was that the pilots would lift heavy logs down Westland and wind the throttles up past where they should be and in a couple of events the rotor blades folded up dropping both chopper and load

Now that IS the back of nowhere. Wicked stuff. Tap-dancing Payloader/Michigan, vodka drinking MIL chopper. How things got done. Didn't catch the name of the railway yard - does that line exist today please? Kind of doubt it. Thanks to you and Peter for sharing - I'll take more if it exists :-)
