Saw Jason Stratham's new flick yesterday, Killer Elite, noticed that quite a bit of the movie was filmed around Melbourne.
Was kinda surprised to see a bell 212 midway through the movie, painted with pretty distinctive colours, all matte grey with bright orange doors and a big "331" on the side.
Huge coincidence or is this helicorps helitack 331 that has been on contract with DSE? Pretty cool if it is, pretty sure I've rappelled out of it.

G'day Rob,
We were assisting with the air to air sequence in Docklands. In this case the subject chopper was an AS350 belonging to Helicopter Services. Haven't seen the movie yet so not sure about the Bell 212 but sounds interesting!
Here's a small preview gallery I put together from the shoot.

Love that DB6 Andrew. Is it locally owned?

I believe so. I didn't get a chance to catch up with the owner but you could tell they were VERY proud. It was in mint condition. I'd love to have seen it in action but it was just a stationary prop. There were pools of drool surrounding it by the end of the day.
