You guys are in the Miami International Bravo no problem huh? Lol always to get that clearance. They sure hate civilian helicopter pilots coming near that Bravo. For the cops its easy. For a Robinson r44 they are like "get lost. What? Did you actually ask us if you could fly anywhere near the MIA Bravo? Yes here is where you are cleared. The shore. Way South Kendall. Or basically almost the Everglades that far West. Nice video. Edit: 10:45 The Grove by the water. Ive done that in a 44 no problem. Just like a quarter a mile further West its NO GO edit: actually like 1/8th of a mile further West its no go. Instructor I went with took videos of all. Even a police chopper taking off East with us from KTMB he got on video. Cool flight.
Has to be the best job ever! Flight and law enforcement all in one? My dream. I'm too old now, but this is as close as it gets to experience it! Awesome!
Cool vlog! They sure have the best view in the department. 😃 One thing I've noticed the pilots are carrying firearms. Is that for they can protect themselves when they land? I mean obviously, it's hard to shoot from the sky. lol
Cool video but if you do this again....how about some actual calls, a pursuit, etc. It's more fun to see the actual meat and potatoes versus the checklists, safety meetings, etc. Just a suggestion.
As of right now its one flight crew so air support is available only when they are on shift. BUT we do also get help from surrounding agencies if air support is needed and our crew is off. -Ralph
I gave the "government "goon from the local Bureau here in Nashville the run around while his on the ground assistant tried to keep their eyes on me....after about 3 hours of them catching up to me I looked up and waved at the dude🫢in the words of Memphis"officers"..BRUH!!!!!...you should have seen how mad that blue goons was,almost crashed into the trees,I was cracking up bruh!it was so funny!!!!!...one of his other buddies thought about me last night cause he came flying by this morning while I was minding my own business again same way I was when the clown tried to follow me around.
So a civilian pilot is armed? Just curios. You know they say if the guy flying you around has grey hair you probably don’t have anything to worry about. ,lol.
I think the gentleman filled the role of the “civilian pilot” on city/public paperwork, but he did mention he had been on the force for over 29 years. I’ve read that police helicopter pilots don’t necessarily need to be sworn officers.
I love the shots flying and things like that but the music is a little much it needs to be toned down a little, we're not at a rock and roll concert, the loud music just ruined the flying shots.
Every police aviation unit should be replaced by advance drones. The helicopter is no longer necessary. It also is an extremely expensive unit to maintain.
First lol 😂
Damn nick
Lol, you get a head start
Got an email for orientation coming up soon really hope to be protecting and serving with you all soon Gods Speed 🙏🏾💯
We miss ya nick

Can’t you do drone flying?
I wouldn't go that far to say it's actually law enforcement it's a bit of a stretch.
love the 80s synthwave vibe
Yes! On that Miami 80's vibe all vlog! -Ralph

Yo Miami PD have the best lighting on the cars
Cool vlog! They sure have the best view in the department. 😃
One thing I've noticed the pilots are carrying firearms. Is that for they can protect themselves when they land? I mean obviously, it's hard to shoot from the sky. lol
I believe all law enforcement pilots carry firearms. I know of CHP helicopters landing and taking suspects into custody on some pursuits.
They’re police officers. It’s a requirement. Regardless of aviation assignment.
@@JoeF-sr4um Yes, if a suspect is in an area unreachable to ground units then the helicopter might land and piolets take down the suspect

Who handles your medevac for the area? What are you pilots doing when they are down for weather? Are you guys a 24/7/365 operation? IFR and VFR?
MEDEVAC is County..Miami Dade Fire Rescue
8:28 Your reaction when you see anything cool on the aircraft
"VCPD, you are under arrest!"
Ima police officer squad car
finally another VLOG
Cool video but if you do this again....how about some actual calls, a pursuit, etc. It's more fun to see the actual meat and potatoes versus the checklists, safety meetings, etc. Just a suggestion.
Nothing gets the busy-bodies on the NextDoor app all worked up quite like a PD ship flying near their gated community.
Are there multiple flight crews or is air support only available during certain shifts?
As of right now its one flight crew so air support is available only when they are on shift. BUT we do also get help from surrounding agencies if air support is needed and our crew is off. -Ralph
gta 6 will be fun
Was that a Police ride a long or a night in the club. All that music I couldn’t tell
QSK QSL is ham radio lingo, never heard it used in aviation but im no expert lol
Can we see some of the more rough areas and how the Miami PD deals with those areas?
😂❤
I would think the City of Miami could afford a better ship!
I gave the "government "goon from the local Bureau here in Nashville the run around while his on the ground assistant tried to keep their eyes on me....after about 3 hours of them catching up to me I looked up and waved at the dude🫢in the words of Memphis"officers"..BRUH!!!!!...you should have seen how mad that blue goons was,almost crashed into the trees,I was cracking up bruh!it was so funny!!!!!...one of his other buddies thought about me last night cause he came flying by this morning while I was minding my own business again same way I was when the clown tried to follow me around.
How long is the shift you didn’t really talk about that
Never knew helicopters had lojack
Segundo
So a civilian pilot is armed? Just curios. You know they say if the guy flying you around has grey hair you probably don’t have anything to worry about. ,lol.
What happened to ofc. Mogro and sgt. Borroto?
Ok so where is the video updating us on the unit changes? Nicks back…?
The civilian pilot carries a gun also?
How can you get into this?
Hey nick!
It'd actually a Airbus H125
Does Miami Police hire civilian pilots?
Why does the civ pilot carry a weapon?
I think the gentleman filled the role of the “civilian pilot” on city/public paperwork, but he did mention he had been on the force for over 29 years. I’ve read that police helicopter pilots don’t necessarily need to be sworn officers.
How is the name of this police Helicopter ? I will buy a old Helicopter
Would be a lot better without the old rock music. We want to hear the chopper.
I love the shots flying and things like that but the music is a little much it needs to be toned down a little, we're not at a rock and roll concert, the loud music just ruined the flying shots.
Why is the pilot a civilian?
Because there's really no cops that fly aircraft,so they look for someone who has experience flying aircraft and has the qualifications
This can‘t be miami!!
the sky is not completely yellow like in the tv/movies 😂
May I wear the clothing
Where nick
Wait.. civilian pilot yet is carrying a gun ?
Ummm why
Civilian pilot? So why is he open carrying a firearm?
Lose the loud music!
Great VLOG not as good as K9
Get someone new to put your videos together
You’re not the original Nick so to see you doing this I don’t want to watch
Every police aviation unit should be replaced by advance drones. The helicopter is no longer necessary. It also is an extremely expensive unit to maintain.
LAME !!
Would have been nice to hear the heli spool up insted of that stupid music
With the relative wind the helicopter creates you couldn't hear a thing, that heli is pretty powerful. 😉 -Ralph
Next time skip the music. It ruins the video.
Patrolling in a helicopter sounds like the biggest waste of money
