hey rescue 5 isnt that the one that took Michael Jackson on his final helo ride?

I believe "Rescue 5" is actually a unit.  

"N950DG" (Serial 149724) was the L.A. Sheriff's UH-3H helo that flew Jackson from ucla to USC.  Most famous helo in the world for 15 minutes there.

Yeah rescue 5 is a unit.... they have 3 flyable SH-3H's and 2 that dont fly for parts. and they bought the junk helos for $1!  Im kinda confuse right now, I thought that the N950SB Rescue 5 helo was the one that transported M.J.  I might be wrong but I found this dumb video on youtube....      the pilot said it was that helicopter, he probably meant that "TYPE"

AH-1W Cobra

Cool shots, Damon.   

[NikonGuy]

LoL good one...     

[Midnight Mover]

Well, I can still charge $50 for each print since this is a pretty low quality image posted it will not look good as a print....  

It's worth at least $50 (but we are all broke, dam camera equipment and computers), great shot I'll get one of us next time and we can trade And I don't think the government can tax us for that

No, it was "N950DG".  See HD vid 1:21 in.
