No more moving trucks left in Califonia. They will do anything to escape. |

Lets not do that---then you have a broken window. Use battery locks. |

to keep someone from stealing a helicopter is by having it in a secure hangar. |

ABC.COM says it was a Bell 429 so I imagine it was an R-22! |

Hope Capitol has good insurance. Security at Sac Exec Airport is non-existent and always has been. I'm sure the other machines have damage from incorrect start attempts. This should be a good story once the criminal is identified. Disgruntled ex employee, angered compeditor, would be prison break? |

In the mid 1980's a Vietnam Vet stole an Air Log helicopter from the base in Galveston and him and 4 others robbed the bank in Leesville, LA. They made off with $160,000. They ditched the helicopter in OK, i beleive. |

robbery post was partially correct. 1st helo stolen was from Commercial Heli. `the armoured truck got hung up in traffic, heist take was low.. 2nd helo stolen was Air Log and they hit a S&L in the Houston area. They made it to CO. Get away was hampered by fuel cache being discovered by a rancher who used it on his ranch. Some of the wrenches at Commercia printed up shirts with "1st choice of helicopters bank robbers". I used to have one. Both stolen from Scholes too |

Pilot was Jim Little, Google "Jim Little Helicopter Pilot" or find the book "Once a Hero". Worked with him @ Alaska Helicopters, if memory serves me correct, he was still employed by AHI at the time of the first robbery... |

Didn't know it had 2 engines. Got one started and rolled it on lift off. Anyone can fly a helicopter. They do it on TV all the time ! |
