The pilot , "He did not want to talk about the incident until he had spoken to police. " just hoping they had a large tube of glue to stick the tail back on ...

Looks like he did a good job , flat on the skids smile.gif

Very well done. Tough spot to have to put it down.

Yeah well done. I'm pretty sure that machine was once owned by Marine Helicopters in Auckland.

Pilot thanks his lucky stars

A helicopter pilot who was forced to make an emergency landing near the Brook Valley had just picked the helicopter up from maintenance in Nelson when the engine failed.
