SkylineView Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Anybody else see that helicopter come through the Galleria area today (Monday 1/30 morning)? Holy mother-fu#$ing shit. I work on the ~15th floor of one of the buildings just south of Williams and we were literally looking down into the rotor as it blew past about 25 feet from the windows. People dove out of one of the conference rooms thinking it was going to come through the glass before it ducked away. It came within about 30 feet of the tower crane building the new apartments on Hidalgo and cut the buildings down the lakes on Post Oak. Complete nonsense.

cspwal Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 According to KHOU it was a DoE helicopter scanning the city's background radiation. http://www.khou.com/news/local/low-flying-helicopter-seen-near-galleria-area/394786235 I assume they'll do this again closer to the Superbowl to try to spot any nukes or dirty bombs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonMidtown Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 They just sent out an AlertHouston email telling people to expect more low-flying helicopters over portions of Houston today - security measures for SB 51 and associated events Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pragmatist Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Yeah, they have been flying them low down the streets in downtown all day. One just flew over me probably only two or three hundred feet off the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
