[QUOTE="Andre Levite, post: 61551, member: 10850"] I also live in South Florida and it's extremely common for helicopter pilots to hug the shoreline traveling at top speed. They like to follow the coast for easy north-south orientation and fly below 400 feet without any worries of buildings or trees. By the time you see or hear them there's barely enough time for evasive maneuvers. The only solution is to stay below 200 feet and have a spotter with you. Most of them are law enforcement, military or medical transport. That's some terrible PR if you you cause an accident or injury. Let's all agree to be mindful of this scenario. [/QUOTE]
