Here's an update. Apparently a second helicopter may have been involved.

Take the following with a grain of salt, as these things were reported in the media.
A couple of things mentioned in the news yesterday and today. Yesterday they said that the helicopter was being used by 4 pilots who had rented it to build their time up for their commercial licences, they were using the farm as their base of operation.
Today on the news a friend of the lady killed said that the lady had hired the heli to take her boyfriend on a picknick for his birthday I think it was. After the heli rolled over on its side the pilot bailed out, apparently the boyfriend then shut down the engine and pulled the lady out.
The mystery continues

The police knew the registered owner right away and so can you....use your Transport Canada website......FFVI. It wasn't white, it was gray and I flew it 20 yrs ago. The lady's an idiot and her husband must think so too because he was yelling at her to shut her trap. Rightly so.......the American border is a gunshot away.
