A huge, white and green, insanely loud helicopter just buzzed over our house, lower than I've ever seen before. No numbers. It circled about six times, then went to the neighbors house. Then it came back to ours, etc. It came out of the blue, completely disrupted any peace or possibility for conversation for about 15 minutes, then left. I can't believe these henchmen pieces of work haven't been shot down yet with all the cracked out people in these woods, I would think pilots would be down right scared to pull these Stazi tactics.

Earlier today (around 10am) the Coast Guard orange helicopter was going out along Railroad near Kaloli & then came back down towards the Point following Shower....
The last 2 hours have had a lot of helicopter traffic in Keaau town (I think I have seen every bird on island in the last few minutes!) and nothing much is happening at Pu'u O'o (yah... that was my first thought... flow down the pali... but NO flow yet.....)

Yeah they were making a buunch of noise in the acres for a while too. They didnt spend too much time around here tho so i doubt it was green harvest. Maybe a missing person? As i write this i hear another helicoptor off in the distance...

About 5 years ago, our anniversary present to ourselves was to book one of the helicopters for the minimum 45 minutes in order to get aerial views of our property. Our 15 minutes over station may have annoyed a neighbor or two, but I emailed all of them aerial photos of their property. All said thanks.

They went back and forth, back and forth over ocean at Maku'u - I kept thinking someone's hurt somewhere. Hope no one went in the brink.

At least a couple of the helicopters were part of green harvest - a black and white one and the usual yellow one. The yellow one dropped a guy on a line into a neighbor's yard (an adjoining lot to mine) on B road in Kaloli Point while the other helicopter circled the area. After 5 minutes he was lifted away with a very large sack full of plants on the end of the line. This was shortly before midday on Thursday.
Don't think I would normally have minded but I'm currently working nights and the last thing I needed was a helicopter hovering literally a couple of hundred yards away in the morning. If I hadn't been so grumpy and half-asleep I would have thought to have taken a picture or two.

My mom said they were buzzing all over Hawaiian Acres too. Same tactics, circling, LOW, hovering, round and round, not in direct lines. Definitely green harvest. I thought that was all pau???!!! Thought they were only allowed to do that now to follow up on direct tips; not go on searches of multiple subdivisions...?
Seeb, Stasi being the secret police of East Germany, who spied on their own common people in order to make sure they were following the extremely controlling laws of their government and, if they were found not to, were made to disappear. The line I draw is clear, no?

They were flying low over Fern Acres yesterday morning, then saw them again when I was up in Fern Forest in the afternoon...and again in Fern Acres before dinner. Low and loud...
