Military helicopters will be flying high and dipping low above the skies of Los Angeles Thursday as part of a special operations training program.
Sky2 captured dramatic maneuvers Wednesday night as a Blackhawk helicopter and four other OH-6 helicopters – or “little birds” – flew over the city.
The Blackhawk hovered over the U.S. Bank building before it made a practice drop-off at a nearby park.
At one point, our cameras captured a soldier sitting with his legs dangling outside a chopper.
Throughout the exercise, the five rotorcrafts were staged at Dodger Stadium.
The LAPD says the purpose of the training is, in part, to ensure the military’s ability to operate in urban environments.
