Does anybody know Tim Tolaro? He used to fly the Columbus Ohio traffic Jet Ranger "yellow thunder". I lost contact with him after moving back to Ireland, but know him well in the mid eighties in Columbus Ohio? Any help would be appreciated, he lived in Columbus but may be back in cinncinati now.

Sorry I only know a journo/cameraman who use to fly with him, but his details are at home in Aus. Did you try contacting the traffic chopper in columbus? It was still around when I was there in 2006

traffic heli now gone, its apparently done by fixed wing now for financial reasons. In the mid eighties when I was there there was also a fixed wing flying traffic for another local station.
