French Navy Helo Over The Hudson
A French Navy Aérospatiale Dauphin was flying up and down the Hudson this morning doing some sightseeing(taking photos too) around Manahattan and the Statue of Liberty. It then went and landed on the BEM Monge near the Verrazano, which is a French missle tracking and space observing ship.

Re: French Navy Helo Over The Hudson
They were here to welcome us to the family of socialist nations...that is until they surrendered to a departing Liberty Helicopters sightseeing tour. Boy were those tourists confused.

Pretty cool. I wonder if they were in contact with EWR/LGA ATC or even self-announcing on the Hudson River freq?
