MEDIA RELEASE
The Hawai’i Police Department is not conducting any operations involving the use of a helicopter in the Kona area. A private company is conducting a GPS mapping survey in the Kona area, which will continue until later this afternoon. The Hawai’i Police Department has received several complaints about a low flying helicopter. The company’s name is Fugro Aerial Mobile Mapping.
Was this action approved by the FAA and other agencies? HELCO conducts aerial inspections from time to time, but HELCO always publically informs the public through the media about their aerial operations before they do so. Was there any prior public notice that this was going to happen?
whats the big deal? they catch you on the can!!!
