A new Detroit DPD helo is flying around DET, as PD1. It's a Bell 407 N450BF. I wonder what they did with the 2 old Kiowa's.

I think the media reported they would in reserve status.

I kind of miss the really old callsign … Alpha 1 !

N513PD was PD 1
N514PD was PD 2 both were old Army Kiowa's.

This is PD 1


This is the wrong helo. They did have the right helo before.


After the new helo landed I heard PD2 talking to City twr requesting permission to land at the PD heli pad. He wasn't showing on the tracking sites.

There's a new fence on the west side of the airport. It starts by the fire house near Lynch & French Rd. It goes across runway 7, 25, all the way to the other side. The T Hangers look empty on the west side of the airport. Probably going to build another Amazon building.
