NY people are picking up on this as well. I just turned on my scanner and heard the activity and was wondering what was going on.

FDNY ITACK 5 and UTAC 4 are patched and confirmed up and running. Just herd over the air.

"According to the newsagancy AP, its a sightseeing-helicopter from Liberty Tours that are involved. A total of 6 people onboard. Five passengers and one pilot. The plane is said to have departed from Teterboro Airport in Ne Jersey."
