Nice shot of Central Park...pity it didnt look like that this afternoon with 600 BKN and downt to a mile vis at times - a sucky afternoon. Hopefully you'll get better weather later this week, but dont peek out your CT window tthis evening, its horrid.

Liberty Helicopters are pretty good for tours. Suggest West 30th Helipor location (at 12th ave). Newer EC130's for tours plus the odd Astar. Probably get a little more out of a daytime flight than a "night" flight, though sunset might be nice. Sunset is 6pm about now.

Otherwise, New York Helicopters at Wall St/Downtown Mo-Fri and shares W30th location at weekends. At W30 you get to see the corporate guys in the 76's whixch can be a nice sight.

Havent worked for Liberty (Im fractional/corpporatE)), but hear good things and we employ some of their ex pilots so they cant be too bad, lol...
