    The tail number was blocked out with black paint when I saw it but seeing a TwinStar at FRG involved in some type of Movie/TV
    job and I know that Al Cerullo and 355AG is involved.[/quote]

    The "GI Joe" Copter was just at Republic. Callsign was not 355AG, it was N355MH - registration comes back to Monmouth Helicopter Services in NJ.

    Stopped by today on the bike and caught a few of our warbird friends having a bit of fun...



    Tried playing with a different angle, but I think I would need to get closer to the planes for it to work better.



    Shoot first, ask questions later.

    When I saw it a few weeks ago Al was using his ship 5AG (heard the call sign on Tower). Recently AG was back in its usual colors
    and last Sunday I saw it flying past my house with the nose mounted Wescam camera.
    I believe N355MH is a second ship that Al uses. IF you saw "Taking Pelham 1-2-3" 355MH was the ship used as the on camera
    NYPD copter.

    The Coast Guard payed us a visit in a HH-65 Dolphin today at 2:30PM (approx) and left at 3:18PM (approx)

    Also a red and gold biz jet came today.

    Unfortunately, I forgot my camera and my cell phone died :(

    Finally got around to editing the shot. It's backlit, but it was the only angle I had:

    I saw another HH-65 pass over my house today, I assume it was at KFRG.

    that's an easy one. hard question is how many changes of underwaer they're each going to bring along...
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    I do not work late anymore :(

    I plan on going early Tuesday, I did get to fly on this bird a while back and that is what started my big round noisy oil leaking motor obsession. Here is an OLD pic with building 93 in the backround.






    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".
