The Police helicopter often comes around our house as they check the roads after a hijacking has occurred.
They circle round and round until satisfied the area is clear - as there are a lot of trees it takes a bit of work and they fly very low and slow. At night the searchlight lights up our bedroom often!
The other day I grabbed my camera and got this shot. Note the door gunner!
The helicopter is a Eurocopter AS350 B3 - Murph's models have a model of the SAPS one at a very reasonable price.
