New Jersey State Police Sikorsky S-76 Operations - March and May 2007

New Jersey State Police S-76
Somerset Airport
Bedminster, New Jersey
March 3, 2007 and May 5, 2007

IN THIS VIDEO, as part of a short trip to the Somerset Airport on March 3 and May 5 in 2007, I caught one of the New Jersey State Police's Sikorsky S-76s arriving (in the first part of the video...shot in March) and then going out on a call (second part... that part was shot in May). These pilots fly MEDEVAC missions under the NorthStar callsign.

This video is dedicated to my favorite part of the New Jersey State Police.

If you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take the time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .

@harddrivenj It's a Piper Lance I think. Looked too long for an Arrow.

@PSNChozoLilBro It's the aircraft's FAA registration number and international code, you find it on any American aircraft (mine for example is N9869Q.) If you're in Canada...a reg code would look something like C-PAQ and if you're in the UK ....an example would be G-DPMO

[PSNChozoLilBro]

why does it say NINJ on the side?

[harddrivenj]

@cannonmaker I think its a Piper Arrow IV

[12magic45]

Great, very interesting. Thank you for showing. Excellent quality!!!

@adleraviation Its a medivac helo. Typically everyone says its a waste of money until its saving YOUR ass...just like when Corzine crashed his police suburban at 80+mph.

And how bout its an S76 because that's built in America and an EC135 is NOT.

[kdixon7783c]

Your New Jersey tax dollars at work.

[adleraviation]

Why the NJ State police need a S-76 in the first place is beyond me. Why don't they use a EurocopterEC135? NINJ looks like it's a private craft for the elite NJ politicians.

That thing is nice!! As always, ５★★★★★

the craft at 6:10 some sort of beech model? never seen a high tail model other than a beech.
