A look at Lake County's Bell OH-58A at Munster National Night Out Against Crime 2009

Eurocopters are also WAY more expensive and don't autorotate as well as this ex-Army OH-58 which probably only cost $150,000... if the Sheriff's department had to pay the government anything to buy it. Free... verses a multi million dollar Eurocopter. Hmmm! I'd chose the free OH-58 Kiowa that flies and does everything they need it to do and then some. So, it makes sense. These things glide 1 mile horizontally for every thousand feet they lose in an autorotation. That's hard to beat!

Euro Copters are waaayyyyyyyyyy faster and better than this bell.
