Helilog56 Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 :up: Well done Steve Flynn and crew from Blackcomb Helicopters in Whistler. A man that fell through the ice in the middle of a lake in Whistler yesterday was rescued by a Blackcomb Astar that plucked him from the icy waters. It was a very nice bit of flying to allow the man to be pulled into the a/c with the skids practically in the water. The RCMP felt the man would not have survived if the helicopter had not carried out the rescue.....Well done Guys.... :up: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
