A helicopter made an emergency landing at a New Jersey cruise ship terminal Tuesday after its pilot called in a “mayday” and asked for help finding an immediate landing spot, telling air traffic control they lost an engine.
\n\nAir traffic control correspondence shows the conversation unfold between the pilot and controllers, as they discuss the aircraft’s stability and select a landing point in Bayonne.
\n\nBoth the pilot and the co-pilot, the only two people aboard, were OK, radio communication indicated.
\n\nChopper 4 over the scene shows a helicopter, possibly one associated with a tourism company, on the pier. Its tail appears sheared off, though it wasn’t clear if that happened upon impact or before.
