This would've been great if you had headset audio!
Yes we need headset audio
Also if they had a door gunner with a mini gun.
Yes!! Take another ride and add the headset audio. There are few videos out there with police helicopters, and this just rocks!
@@GeorgeCostanza_ the mini gunner would be awesome !
when I was a teenager I was in the LAPD Explorers and we got a chance to go wash and wax the LAPD choppers and go on a fly along. It was fun until We all started getting a bit nauseous from all the tight turns, but it was amazing and I still treasure that experiance to this day.
This seems like really cool job to fly around LA and LB all day that low and this also shows the scope of how large widespread LA truly is. Thanks for posting
I agree
From the days of the tv show Adam-12 till now, the airship program has been a success, not only in L.A., but all over the country.
"Murphy, the Captain wants to see you guys , right away "
Reminds me of Blue Thunder! :)
Great footage! Thanks for uploading!
Thank you! Stay tuned (subscribe) for more aviation videos!
I was thinking the same thing, JAFO. 😊
Astro Division!
Good old Roy Scheider and Malcolm McDowell.
Better count down 25 seconds on my watch to check my sanity
I was a TFO for the Fresno Police Aviation Unit for 12 years. Best job in the department I ever had.
I can imagine
I was born and raised in LA and although I don’t live there anymore I don’t hate the place like a lot of people do. My one wish before I go to the other side is to take a a flight on a LAPD copter around the west side of LA and/or ride with the mounted unit down Wilshire Blvd 😀
The LAPD Helicopter Division is stationed on the roof of C. Erwin Piper Technical Center. The police heliport was brand new back in 1983, when the movie Blue Thunder was shot.
It´s an old movie but a great one. In preparation for the 1984 L.A. Olympics, the LAPD receives an experimental new helicopter with a lot of
high tech gadgets and weapons (for that time) built in. Near the end of the movie are fantastic helicopter Vs. helicopter chase/combat scenes.
She's a Rebel! 🤟
The view from inside the Ghetto bird is always more impressive.
Excellent name.
They should number them like that, "This is ghetto bird 1 flying over sector 3 all is clear over"
This has got to be one of the ultimate jobs... Keep up the great work Blue.
It can’t be as good as beating up people on the street for no reason at all. Keep up the good work blue.
It IS the best job! Speaking from experience. 😉
@@mr.wilson8340 you mean like this Mr. Wilson??? I don't think that's great at all... ruclips.net/video/H0KWPqUBGUQ/видео.html&ab_channel=EyewitnessNewsABC7NY
@@mr.wilson8340 wow, what a well thought out and articulate comment. So thought provoking. 🖕🏼
@@mr.wilson8340 quit being a criminal and you wont find yourself hating police lol
the rebel logo on his helmet is SICK
God bless you for your great work and air support and thanks for sharing this flight moment ❤
Aww man! Thank you for taking us along!!! I LOVE to fly and this video is so much fun! Let's get the bad guy and thank you for watching out for us!
Nice to see things from the Ghetto Bird's perspective 🚁
Aaaaa man that would be a life dream to be on board thanks for everything you helo people do for us down here.
When I was a kid in the late 70’s my family lived in LA. I remember one night hearing a helicopter hovering above our house so my brother and I went outside to see what was going on. It turned out to be an LAPD helicopter. They shined the night sun spotlight on us and then yelled on the PA to get back in the house. The only time in my life I’ve ever been yelled at by a helicopter lol
Lol!
Way back, I remember calling it the ASTRO division.
Air Support To Regular Operations
Looks like that is where they filmed Blue Thunder.
@@greyhound-t3k They DID use that location ("Hooper Heliport") in the film, "Blue Thunder".
Utmost respect for law enforcement!! As a long time pilot; rotor & fixed wing, this brings back years of memories flying in the LA Basin.
Also reminds me of all the noise complaints from citizens from the "news helicopters". It's not the news, or VIP, or tour helicopters making the noise... It's the daily (and nightly) low-level flight operations as highlighted here that create the continuous noise problems. As an ex-military pilot and pilot that flew in the LA Basin for over 30 years I still ask myself the question, "Is there really a need to fly at 200 to 500 agl to conduct these operations?
Uhhh, yes! No matter what camera system or moving map we have in those aircraft, nothing beat working a call at 300’ agl, with eyes outside. Nothing. We catch more badguys that way than flying at 1000’ looking at a stupid camera and with our head ps “inside” all the time. …It’s how we roll.
I like the Star Wars Rebel insignia on the back of the copilot's helmet!
This is a perspective not many get to see. A view from high in the sky. Man (or woman), I would love that executive suite. Stay safe everyone. Great vid.
flying helicopters are very different from fixed wing aircraft. Your feet and hands are always on the controls and you become one with the machine. one hand on the cyclic, the other hand on the collective and both feet on the anti torque pedals.
In the ASTAR, you can keep your feet flat on the floor flying all day, including landing without using the pedals. (Run-on landing with a tail rotor control failure or tail rotor drive failure, as the ASTAR RFM calls it). It’s really a non event once you know how to do it and practice it almost daily)😉
@@colt10mmsecurity68 these must be modern helicopters. Do you know if helicopters have auto-pilot features ?
@@spankyharland9845 LAPD does not. LA Sheriff ASTARS do with about half of their fleet at the moment. They’re converting over for instrument training of all the pilots.
@@colt10mmsecurity68 yes, because of the ever changing flight characteristics of a helicopter, they only have auto-hover in some helicopters, but no auto pilot.
@@spankyharland9845 No, not exactly. We have Garmin full 3-axis autopilot for helicopters! The system you’re talking about was “Helisas,” made by companies like Genesys (formally “Chelton”). Garmin has developed a full autopilot (GFC 600H, Google it) for certain helicopters and the ASTAR is one of them, I fly and instruct with them in ASTARS for a living. You can load up an instrument approach and the autopilot will fly the helicopter down to minimums. You can set it up to orbit over a location and go hands free. Garmin also has a “leveling” feature that in the event one goes inadvertent IMC, a push of the button and the helicopter will right itself and fly straight/level in the clouds and without the use of hands or feet on the cyclic or pedals. The only control that at this time is NOT controlled by the autopilot is the collective. However, Garmin will be coming out with that next, within a couple of years. They are working on that as we speak.
Great 👍 video to all the Women and Men of Law Enforcement thank you for your service! 🙏🇺🇸
FASCINATING!! Great tour with some action!
*Very cool. Thank you for sharing this.*
Hello Airfighter videos,
Thank you for this video! LAPD ASD please be safe and Thank you for your service!
Hope you, Airfighter Videos, your families, friends, fans are having a wonderful New Year!!
Take care, be safe, and peace out!!
Thank you! You too!
A siren on a helicopter.... what a time to be alive
Multiple shootouts in one mission? Man LA is a dangerous place😂
so amazing, never been in a helo. that would be so kewl to do. seeing Cali from that view was awesome
Cool video..San Pedro with Saint Thomas Bridge & USS Iowa..
Always love seeing these ride-alongs. This particular ship is now in Chicago, serving as WLS-TV’s “Chopper 7” with registration N871AD… wonder if someone will post a ride-along from its new mission.
I like it how the one of the pilots have a Star Wars emblem on his helmet XD
Took off from the same building the T800 was crushed in by Sarah Conner in Terminator 1
What a cool way to keep your head-on-a-swivel. 🚁
most nurses should know it's NEVER a good idea to load the patient head-first unless the Tail rotor is protected by a cover.
Magnifique cité des anges 🇺🇸 Vu du ciel... que dieu vous bénisse tous ❤
Man I thought they stopped doing airship ride alongs!! I went up with them in 2017 and had a blast. We had a 211 where a lady armed with a knife robbed a chinese restaurant and then hid in a parking garage across the street for half an hour haha. They showed me dicaprios mansion as well. Cool group of dudes!
Nice. Cheers from Brazil. Btw I live next to a local police department that operates the as350.
Thank you!
The model name of this helicopter - Écureuil - is one of the hardest French words to pronounce correctly! lol.
That's why we just call it "A-Star".
I used to live and fly in Los Angeles, watching this video brings back me good memories, One thing that I used to hate was the terrible traffic. Good video, but if you can stabilize the image would great. Greetings to Ya'll from North Carolina.
Blue Thunder (Roy Schneider)1980s movie 😸👌
Super awesome video...thx for sharing..
FYI: I don't know who put the info up about the aircraft, but "N230LA" is not the serial number. It's the FAA Registration number (similar to a car's license number) and is commonly called the N-number for obvious reasons. The serial number is assigned by the manufacturer, the N-number by the FAA. Thanks for putting in the blurry stills. They really clarified things. Also, this is America. There's no "u" in "harbor".
BE 🙂 NICE!
The same heliport where Blue Thunder was shot!
Yes, it is.
Thanks for the Griffith Park Observatory flyover.....I grew up in Glendale.
I'm sorry..🙄
Why sorry!?
@@leechjim8023 Glendale sucks.
I’m not. It was a nice place in the 60s.
Shots fired at Nakatomi Plaza!!
Blue Thunder and Star Wars rolled into one.
Adam 12, where are you?
I love flying helicopters more than driving a car. No gridlock, stop signs, or rude drivers.
This was really fantastic needs audio. Awesome.
This is great 👍.. I'd love to go up with these guys.. 🚔👮🇱🇷
Ahhhhhhhh reminds me of good ole San Andreas... you know with Franklin,Mikey and we can't forget Trevor... LOL...
fabulous!
" Hey! I can see my house from here! :D "
Cool!
subscribed for growth. Looking forward to seeing 100k next.
That would be nice!
I tried to get a ride along with SSD aviation, but they don't do ride along any longer. Lost a few deputies in an accident a few years back and the liability was too great to let civilians go up. Instead, I went out with a K9 unit!
Sweet.. more lost deputies plz🙏🏾
@@Solo-_-.. ?
@@phantomf4747 oh, looks like we received more justice🙏🏾
@@Solo-_-.. uh ok not really sure what you’re talking about
@@phantomf4747 Solo is just a cop hater.
Rockstars
Some great views
Thanks! I enjoyed this ❤
This is way older than 3 weeks! Look at the police cars! Not one Explorer
LAPD doesnt patrol Long Beach harbor, that was actually San Pedro....
That was literally San Adrea in real life lol
Wow are all American police helicopthelicopter this small? These are babies compared with what we use in Australia!
That was awesome, God Bless our law enforcement family.
4:06 Griffith Park Observatory in the Los Feliz neighborhood
Damm this video is old because the intercontinental isn’t there yet
Back in the 80s they had a lot cooler kit.... :-)
Im use to jumping out of helcopters with a chute. Ch53's, ch46's. :0
I like the sticker Volture 🦅in your Helicópter...
Hey!!! that's my hometown 10:45 Judging by the brightness and shadows that its casting this was taken around 10a-12P? How close was I? @Airfighter videos
Man, that was scary to fly that low and close to tall building with all those tight turns. i would rather be in a patrol car or foot pursuit any time.
Woulda been cool to take out your JAFO in Blue Thunder for this.
Ride-a-long or scenic tour?
Are the LAPD choppers equipped with cameras?
I don't see Blue Thunder, Frank Murphy, JAFO, nor Captain Braddock
nice ...
How long between the call and off ground?
Does Blue Thunder only come out at? 😂
Very cool 😎 🇨🇦🙏👍
The irony of law enforcement having that sticker on their helmet.
Great job👍🏻
Best Video on YT!!! and I've made a few on here...NICE!
What was the siren for? 🚨
Yeah what was the siren for cause it is loud for those who wanna ride in LAPD Helicopter
Cool video. Man that air quality. Horrible!!!!!
SHHMMOGGG!!!
I admittedly know nothing about helicopter operations, but it is normal for a helo pad to be almost surrounded by tall power lines?
JAFO has the wrong symbol on his helmet.
Super
I saw a Air Unit a few days ago and it was circling, after a few minutes of circling it began gaining altitude (maybe about 600/700 feet), it turned, went straight down like a fighter jet and I didn't see it again. I've seen this before but I don't know what technique that is or something. Anyone feel free to explain
Why did the pilot do the slow turnaround at the beginning before taking off?
Because just like fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters have to taxi and "take-off" as it were as well.
This would have been such a wicked ride along...
Does anyone have any insight as to how SoCal approach handles them? Obviously they'll sometimes be VFR underneath and sometimes will need a clearance into the bravo... Are they just treated like any other VFR helicopters? What if they need to immediately enter a surface area?
Blue Thunder
nice.
Thank you
I wish I could find the former LA motor office who move$ on the the Helicopters. Thank You. Called his bike Darkness
He had a RUclips Video. Lost track of him when we move from San Diego to La Pine Oregon Any help would be appreciated Thank You
Blue Thunder. Jafo
How were you able to do this?
Love LAPD since 1974
They love police also ,Justine Damond,Kelly thomas, Frank ordonez, richard cutshaw, valerina peralta, autumn steele, jeremy mardis, mary knowlton, fanta bility, daniel shaver and christian glass , jemel robinson, aiyana jones, john adams,johnny hurley, mike ramos, brianna taylor,Rhoghena nicholas,dennis tuttle, their dog ,elijah mcclain and ask the children and their parents at Uvalde their opinions of👮🏻
This would have been cool with audio of the comms.
Some precision ground attack ordinance would give them a keen edge!
And some return fire from the innocents they will murder eventually.. Like ,Justine Damond,Kelly thomas, Frank ordonez, richard cutshaw, valerina peralta, autumn steele, jeremy mardis, mary knowlton, fanta bility, daniel shaver and christian glass , jemel robinson, aiyana jones, john adams,johnny hurley, mike ramos, brianna taylor,Rhoghena nicholas,dennis tuttle, their dog ,elijah mcclain a
An ordinance or ordnance? 😏 lol
