I stopped by BLM today to shoot a G4 that was departing and while waiting had this nice little suprise stop in. The only 2 I know of in the area are based at West Point so thats where its from I imagine. The rest are in San Juan and down south I believe.

I missed the G4 depart for this but I think it was a much better catch

nice! i'm not much of a eurocopter fan but if it's good enough for the army then it's good enough for me.
Nice shot. I read they use the ships for VIP flights and cadet training.Quote:

Always liked the BK117/EC-145 look.
Definitely the better the catch Bill... You're on a roll after the S-61 at Linden... :DQuote:

Gerard, I agree. Really sorry to the Bells go, but at least the BK117/EC-145 frame is something decent to see....Quote:

He have a bunch of those in and out during the week up at Orange County KMGJ because Taylor Aviation maintains the USMA's fleet of C182's (Just installed a full Aspen Avionics set up with JPI engine monitoring in those... pretty nice setup)
