I could probably buzz out there over the weekend and get you some shots. (Could have been a lot worse: the tower is right behind a large townhome development, and the chopper crashed in a field just across the road from them...) Can't think of a better example for you...

I am working on a power point presentation for the local OEM. The subject matter is selecting an appropriate LZ for medivac helicopters, IE keep the aircraft away from towers and power lines. What I am looking for is a night day shot from exactly the same perspective (let the ground crew see the guys in the daylight watch them disappear at night) _ Insert movie times and more without leaving Hotmail®. http://windowslive.com/Tutorial/Hotmail/QuickAdd?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_HM_Tutorial_QuickAdd1_052009

Nothing scare the bejesus out of them like flying anywhere *close* to a 500+ ft tower. -- Kris Kirby, KE4AHR Disinformation Analyst
