Police Search and Rescue training exercise
Police Search and Rescue squad are conducting a training exercise, involving the Royal New Zealand Air Force, in the Upper Hutt and Kaitoke areas on Tuesday 7 October.
The exercise will involve the use of an NH90 helicopter and will be taking place near the Trentham Military Camp and along the Ridge Track in Kaitoke Regional Park.
Police are advising the public to please stay well clear and follow the instructions of Search and Rescue personnel who will be on scene, if you happen to see the activities occurring. The helicopter is expected to be flying at a low level for planned winching, which can generate strong down drafts and possibly cause you to be unsteady on your feet or dislodge foliage above you.
Members of the public should not be alarmed; while loud noises can be expected from the area, this is part of a controlled, routine exercise and is not an emergency event.
