Flight Risk: Kim Dotcom's Unexpectedly Eventful Journey
This afternoon a helicopter carrying Kim Dotcom made an emergency landing. We know this because Dotcom related the event in his usual style: by tweeting photos, often of himself.
On the way to a lunch with a real Knight. #FlightRisk confirmed. instagr.am/p/VASW_RskQP/
