Helicopters take off and land all day long in Monaco. It's a great way to arrive from Nice airport. And there's always a bird (a real one) to fly along with you.
The Heliport in Monaco is in mourning at the moment. A couple of days ago a helicopter from
Heli Air Monaco was employed to fly over, and report on, an
é
boulement (landslide) in the hills above the coast. The weather was appalling, deep fog, the helicopter crashed and all three on board were killed - and all for a few tumbled rocks.
That looks like so much fun, especially a ride up and down such a beautiful coast There is a sightseeing helicopter at the edge of the Mississippi during the warm months. I keep meaning to ride it with a bunch of cameras and never get around to it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a peaceful and fun scene. Yet what dreadful news...
