I sure did.
I wonder what dumbas* that was.They are going to be in trouble and they should be. If you go here you can read about it watch the video it's unreal there could have been people killed.It was illegal anyway. Hope they take his license but I know they won't. Go watch it and tell us what you think about it??

Said it was someone from Chattanooga. I bet they will lose their license.

Damn the news is all over tthis we to have been at our friends boat when the and its hard to call them anything but kids fly thru by dock if it hadn't been for the one guy that old couplenwould have been hurt

Its hard to blame kids when adults were right there with them and yes my wife knows lady that works there and they said that everyone is feed up with them but affraid to say anything at dock. Maybe somehing will be done before they hurt someone

I heard it was Grover Estes that was flying that helicopter at Dale Hollow Lake.

Some people really should get a life and stay out of other peoples business! Seriously, assuming who it is when you certainly don't know at all!? It makes you look like a complete idoit!...... Last I checked larco medical wasn't located in chattanooga, dumbass, and why the heck would you feel the need to bring up crowder and that kid? Clearly you need to get your facts straight before you start assuming crap and spreading rumors!!

I heard it was Ernest T. Bass flyin that bird and boy hes a hell of a pilot

Did you ever think maybe they where there and know!!

Seems to me that people should worry more about some of the boat drivers that are plastered out of their mind rather than something like this.

Actually I did think about that before I opened my mouth, unlike everyone else.
So like I said, you should get your facts straight!!

so you think that was OK? the thing could have crashed and killed people is that OK? I agree that they need to get drunks off the lake but this was so very dangerous. If someone got killed you wouldn't be using the name "Looked like fun" now would you?

hey butterfly effect I would rather have a sober helicopter pilot with years of experience above me than a drunk boat driver with little to no experience in front of me

Yeah I agree it was dangerous but that helicopter pilot looked very skilled on that clip yesterday. You people are blowing things way out of proportion. You can get killed from anything. You know those cliffs at the lake that everyone jump off of? Why doesn't anybody make a big deal out of that? if you make one misstep on those you could get killed but im sure everyone of you on here has jumped of them or let your child. So ill leave you with that to ponder on.

The news article said it was someone from another town. Probably a Yankee.

Well...we have a houseboat at Sunset Marina...and I can tell you when this pilot wants to show off and land his helicopter on his houseboat....I really don't care how skilled he is.....If he wants to put his kids and property in danger that is his business.....but, when you start interfering with mine, that is what I have an issueh....He has broken several federal laws. Just glad something might finally be done.

How do you know this pilot had years of experience????? Are you one of them?? you were there? So who was the pilot?? You never answered any of my questions.

they have some new pictures on Channel 5 website go check them out. Look how close it is to the boats. They as so very lucky that something bad didn't happen. What person in their right mind would do this or let kids do this?? and what dummy would fly that helicopter like that??

Butterfly u have way too much time on your hands. Sounds like to me u are very jealous of these people and that if you had a problem with them the appropriate thing to do is talk with them about it. I seen the footage on the news and it doesn't look like that yankee was a dummy with his flying skills. Before calling anyone any names you may want to look in the mirror and examine your own motives.
