i tell you what my brother works in the conservation field and use choppers all the time to fly there gear and them to remote areas and i can tell you as a fact that alot of those pilots are ex or retired airforce/navy pilots and are also used to train experienced pilots (from other states who transfer for whatever reasons) the areas of valleys and every crack and crevest, every stream, pond and lake. so that when there is fires or search and rescues neaded they will be femilier with the areas and whats going on. now during this time they also keep an eye out for any illigal activity. small grows no worry!! i asked a retired airforce pilot that my brother works with at times " have you every seen any marajuana patches?" he replied "yup" i asked "how big and what did you do?" "i will buzz past again take another look and just head out, most of the time its not worth even mentioning" "soooooo like 5,6?" "yeah and sometimes 10-15" and this is all after we just droped straight down the koolaus and hit a up draft to brake the fall, he likes the stunts! and if you every fly for the first time and they tell you to sit in the front next to the pilot.... buckel up tight!!!Aloha- The country choppers are terrorizing many neighborhoods right now. (March 16-1They are cruising at treetop level over private backyards in residential subdivisions. This is in spite of the fact that county voters told them we don't want them do that anymore.
