DoC said its decision was prompted by the crash and the placing of Robinson helicopters on a TAIC "watchlist". Monday's crash brought the number of people killed in New Zealand crashes involving Robinson helicopters to 20 since 1996. The wreckage was due to be airlifted from the crash site yesterday, depending on the progress of the site examination, weather and transport plans, a TAIC spokesman said. A safety investigator from Robinson Helicopter Company in the US will also take part in the site examination and later work.
