rcreager Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Omaha PD has grounded the rotor units due to the lack of money in the budget. Anybody heard about this going around the country? http://www.kptm.com/Global/story.asp?S=108...p;nav=menu606_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC120AV8R Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 It's happening all over the place.

AngelFire_91 Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Yep! Colorado Springs, CO only flies theirs now like twice a week. It was on the chopping block completely for a while but they negotiated it down to just 2 times a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
