Just watch the video of the
emergency workers telling the helicopter guy he would
be arrested if he went back and rescued that woman’s
husband. They forced the husband to be rescued via
rope line across a flooding river. Endangered him and
the crew that had to hike in and do the rope rescue.
Helicopter could have just picked up the guy and had
him with his wife in 5 minutes.
Then a few days later they asked
the helicopter guy to come back and do rescues. Of
course now it was “authorized”.
It is the mentality of those with
“authority”. He was not “approved” to to do the
rescue. He did not break any law, there were no
temporary flight restrictions. He did not create a
hazard. He had permission of the guy to come back and
land there to pick him up.
He just did something that was not
under the control of the “authorities”. They know
better of course. They threatened him with arrest.
So, I find it super easy to
believe that the “authorities” would impound a truck
of anything heading into the area they claim to be
controlling and managing.
