as thread title states, there was a whole lot of racket, extremely loud, way louder than Mercy flight, and I look oput the window and see an attack chopper (looked much like an Apache to be honest) blasting by overhead.

Sounded like there were a few, but I could only see 1 out the window.

Wayyyyyyyyy sweet.

Not really asking a real question. just wanted to post about it.

No pics because they were goone so fast.

Haha, I didn’t see any ordinance on the stubby wings.

It was pretty sweet though. I had to make a post on the internet about it.

I know Niagara used to have UH-1s stationed there. They’re probably UH-60s with the stub wings.

Seemed too narrow to be a UH-60? Aren’t those a bit wider?

I don’t know of any Apaches stationed here - but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t one.

UH-60s are Blackhawks - yes, they’re wide.

Haha this was DEFINATELY not a police helicoptor. it was dark green, and very slender with stubby wings and a chiseled front end.

Unrelated to the escaped dude.

Talk about wasting our resources though on a guy who is not dangerous and is convicted of relatively minor crimes.
