Helicopter scene


I lived a year in Humboldt, I found this movie like a trip down memory lane. Just wanted to throw out there that the Helo in this movie was a Coast Guard whistling *beep* or an HH65 Dolphin. I can tell you first hand that those would never be used in this type of an operation, so I'm sure it was a budgetary choice.

yeah i noticed that too. that helicopter flies along the coast every day. its just the coast guard doing their rounds. definitely not a dea chopper. i liked its inclusion though. its definitely a way to save some money and also something that you would only catch if you live in the area.

Anyone who knows what a Coast Guard chopper looks like would notice that it was that and not a DEA chopper.

So noticeable enough for this easterner to wonder if the Coast Guard supports the DEA.
