    2 Chinook Copters over Brooklyn 5/11/12

    Was just outside for a coffee, saw them circling around a couple of times, couldn't see if they had "UNITED STATES" on them or not, anyone have any idea? thanks

    Aargh - one of my co-workers saw the Marine helos, but I missed it. I did manage to see a banner tow that read "AA Employees have no confidence in AMR management." Circled just south of the Battery for about a half-hour.
