    Re: NYPD 412 New Colors?

    A few weeks ago a 12 year old girl drowned here in Long Beach one block over from me...... NYPD and NCPD were flying staggered together searching for her while one of the A119's was up high and a Coast Guard Jayhawk from ACY breifly showed up...... I got picks on my crackberry but I was more worried about the girl than the choppers at that point to get my SLR out frankly.

    was randomly browsing CNN at work and found this

    Glad you liked -- I edited that piece. Didn't know they'd put it online, and I'm glad you linked to it so I could capture a copy for my reel.

    Sadly a HH-60 went down today in the Northwest killing 3 after it reportedly hit power lines.

    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Yeah, that is some dangerous stuff... In Florida Bayflight has lost two birds to power lines in the last ten years..... One of which was carrying the fuel I delivered to it the night prior to the crash.
