Just Practicing

[Helicopter above Pitt St]

The Army has been practicing running two helicopters up Pitt St. this afternoon. So far they have done about half a dozen laps, down from Circular Quay to about Town Hall where they do some maneuver that I can't quite see out of my window before looping back North over the Domain. They seem to take about a 15-30 minute rest between each lap. Not sure where they go during this time. Perhaps up to Palm Beach. Or perhaps they drop in for scones with the PM at Kirribilli House. In any case, I'm glad that they are keeping themselves busy and giving the office workers something to peer at our of their windows.
