helicopters over dublin

pm. · 2007-09-23 14:26:35

Any see the helicopters over palmerstown 6 in formation, they looked fairly old but there where 3 other helicopters that looked new, did they replace 6 for 3 ? the noise of 6 helicopters flying together at id say less that 1000 feet is unreal.

The Alouette's flew in "vic" formation with 3 AW139's also in "vic" formation they also changed to "line astern" too.
