Paraglider rescue
You may have heard about a paraglider pilot landing in a tree behind the Rex on Sunday. Despite releasing from his harness about 5 metres above the ground he was quite OK!
The rescue team dispatched on Monday morning to retrieve the paraglider from the top of the tree.
Brett, Bob and John struggled their way through the thick forest about a km or so back from the look out. It took most of the day but they were successful in returning with at least three quarters of the paraglider!
