The sleds you see are just being towed out there. And the fins drop once we get out past the ches. bay bridge. And yes it is mine sweeping but not hovering. with a 90ft a/c and only going 7 knots it just looks that way.

And for the helo you are seeing right now. is VSP. we have heard radio contacts the past few days about them. And here is the story to back that up.

I saw it and it has to be a rented thing just for this weekend. Maybe on loan from the national guard or something.
VSP must be spending a bit on fuel. Surprised smokeybear hasn't popped in this thread yet.
