An Orion helicopter had also been seen flying over the area, Key said it was likely observing the situation but he did not know about its presence.

It has been confirmed??? that the RNZAF do have an Orion Helicopter.

"Several police officers were on board the HMNZS Pukaki and an air force Orion helicopter was involved yesterday afternoon. "

One would have thought that their glaring error would have been pointed out to the scribe of these articles.

Like shooting fish in a barrel, taking potshots at reporters.

We should all know by now that there are folk around who are borderline retarded, no need to rub it in.
