As the copter descends, the pilots can be seen parking their plane and climbing out down the wing.
They place their hands on their heads as the chopper touches down.
An officer jumps out and points his gun at the pair as they get down onto their bellies.
A second officer walks into view and makes sure the suspects don’t move as the first officer feels their pockets.
The cops held the suspects at the scene until more police arrived by road, according to local media.
The pair were arrested on suspicion of drug trafficking on Monday (16 Dec) at Penápolis Airport near São Paulo, Brazil.
The police found 435.86 kg (961 lb) of cocaine in the plane and the pilot, during questioning, confessed to transporting the haul.
The light aircraft – which had taken off from Aquidauana, Mato Grosso do Sul State – was seized.
Its airworthiness certificate was valid, as reported by Need To Know.
The police say the co-pilot has a criminal record for drug trafficking and a record of failing to pay child support.
The case has been handed to the Federal Police in Araçatuba, São Paulo State.
