Choppers

  • Post author:

Perhaps you were outside last night, because inside was not an option. If so, you may noticed a low-flying helicopter buzzing the neighborhood. We did.

Apparently, it wasn’t just Wallingford. The West Seattle blog and the Capitol Hill blog both reported the same over their neighborhoods. According to WSB, even the police were puzzled at first, but they eventually got the scoop:

11:35 PM UPDATE: Lt. Smith says police have checked with FAA and learned that it’s a private company doing infrared photography. We may have more on this momentarily. ADDED 11:43 PM: Talked to the FAA. BCRA is the company that had permission for two flyover periods “around Seattle” tonight (the other one was before dark) – and the work apparently involves infrared photography regarding “air barriers”; found out a little more here.

Now you know.

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.
