Read your blog. As for the helicopters there were many in the skies from the news agencies who kept moving north and south to try to get a better picture of the fire. They had enforced a 1-mile radius no fly zone.

I also don't know how many helicopters are owned by the FD, but they were instrumental during this fire in providing light and such to the firefighters on scene.

I think the reporters on scene would have mentioned something if there was a "search" of the sort you are describing in your blog.

OK, now I'm really going to sleep. (o;

Weren't these the news copters? They were being kept back more than a 1/2 mile from the building. I was monitoring at least 3 of the news choppers scanner freqs that were there and this looks like the area they were reporting from.
