They will be invoiced for costs incurred - Its called Hire. If the Pilot was under contract even as a contractor and not an employee, they are still responsible for what happens when they are paying him to do the job. We are responsible for subbies on our site even though they are not our employees. So correct, DoC did not own the chopper or employ the pilot, but the chopper and pilot was being paid for by DoC and will fall under the cost of the operation.
