Get to the choppa!!!

Today I learned that #worldhelicopterday is a thing 🚁 Here’s some of my favorite helicopter pics, a mix of military and civilian captured at KBAF in Westfield, MA. See alt text for descriptions. #helicopter #kbaf #airplanes #aviation #avgeek

The third Sunday in August is designated #WorldHelicopterDay, an annual international celebration of these amazing machines and the crew who fly them. The latest helicopter over Wicklow skies is the AW189, operated by #Bristowhelicopters for the Irish Coast Guard, using the call sign Rescue 116.

If you didn’t already know, today is #WorldHelicopterDay! 🚁

We are so lucky to have the incredible crews from #NPAS who work alongside us all over the UK to support Policing Operations. 💯

A special shoutout from me to #NPASLondon for my visit last year! 🫡

#ThinBlueLine 🚨

This #WorldHelicopterDay, meet the Mara’s Sky Guardian, the only helicopter dedicated to protecting wildlife here. Piloted by MEP CEO Marc Goss, it monitors habitats, rescues elephants, mitigates conflict, restores forests & aids communities in emergencies.
