The transport plane is a Nord Noratlas (mentioned by the commentator, I've checked how to spell it).
The helicopter is a Sud-Ouest S.O.1221 Djinn, Reg. No. F-ZVLU.
"MS Australian Air Minister" - his name is Athol Townley (mentioned by commentator, I've checked for how to spell the name).
Thanks a lot. We've added this information.
