Nautilus Aviation CEO Aaron Finn said a member of the company's ground crew was the pilot who was killed when one of the company's helicopters crashed.

The person who was killed when the helicopter they were flying crashed into a Cairns hotel worked for Nautilus Aviation, the company that owned the helicopter. Nautilus Aviation CEO Aaron Finn said on Tuesday that a member of their ground staff "gained unauthorised access to helicopter hangar and misappropriated one of helicopters". He said the employee was not authorised to fly and had only joined the company four months ago.

" He said the employee held a New Zealand pilot's license but had never flown in Australia. Authorities are yet to identify the pilot of the unauthorised flight after the fatal crash in far north Queensland on Monday. Hundreds of guests were evacuated and two people were hospitalised after the "massive explosion" at the DoubleTree Hotel in Cairns.
