Helicopter search - Midday update

 
  9 November 2005

Searchers will this afternoon cover the Mount Karioi area again following a break in the weather and new information on the missing helicopter's flight path received from Christchurch Air Traffic Control.

A helicopter equipped with direction-finding equipment and ground search teams have an area of about 50 square kilometres to cover.
 

The meeting being held this morning between rescue authorities and expert advisers to determine the next course of action has been adjourned pending the outcome of the latest.
