Exactly what I was thinking. Slow news day?

I am not a lawyer, but the below link should take you to the Federal regulation (Traffic on the Land Side of Airports Regulations SOR 2006-102) that pertains to your inquiry. I do not see any reference to the Criminal Code so I am sure your wife will be fine. http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regul...

Pelmet, If the firetruck did that and the occupants die. Can you imagine the legal ramifications? You are right of course. But, rescuers have risked all to save a life. I am not saying that I would have done this but, having seen this kind of helicopter situation before on video before, I know the ...

Glad everyone's ok!

Considering how we come to expect piss-poor journalism for aviation news stories, I'm rather surprised. This editor did a great job with this one.

The guy is looking for TRAINING , not contact with Transport Canada or the TSBC.
