    Meanwhile a helicopter pilot who went missing in the Southern Alps last night has been found alive and well

    Meanwhile a helicopter pilot who went missing in the Southern Alps last night has been found alive and well


    The chopper was flying from Hokitika to Darfield yesterday, when it hit low cloud.

    Its emergency beacon was activated, prompting a Maritime Rescue search which was later called off due to the weather conditions.

    But this morning the missing aircraft and pilot were found near Goat Pass.
