Fox 11 AS350 chopper at TOA... Tho this isn't the regular SkyFox which I know to be black and red with the N# N211FN... I'm thinking this is one of their backups.

Nice, could it be the new helicopter for FOX 11?  :o  Could that one be HD?  :o  I'll post a cool pic of abc 7's HD helicopter tomorrow or later on tonight if i don't fall asleep.

I got caught up in a sig alert today on the 91 that closed down all the lanes for about 30 minutes. I would have been a major bummer except I happened to have my camera with me and was able to get a few shots of the news birds buzzing the action.

Yesterday there was a white A-star with blue line down center with what looked like and HD camera or larger camera ball (than most TV copters) flew 2 circles around the Warner Ctr.  Maybe some transition footage for something?

Had N1231A at Hemet last week too for the lightning fires. It's registered to a weird company, does KCBS/KCAL lease it?

Here are some shots of the other news ships at Hemet-Ryan for refueling during the fire siege. Between the 20 firefighting aircraft and half dozen news ships rotating out of the base at a rapid pace, it looked like Hemet-Ryan's glory days of old.

Tiny Bubbles Aviation? A tip of the hat to his grandfather, anda one anda two...

KCAL/KCBS doesn't actually own or lease the helicopters, none of the stations do. We contract with Angel City Air (Which Larry Welk owns. The helicopters are technically registered to Tiny Bubbles Aviation and operated by ACA) for the helicopter service, as does KTLA. 7 and 11 are with Helinet. KNBC has a agreement to share video with KTTV.
