Spectacular Golden Gate Bridge / San Francisco Aerials - Fly over AND UNDER Golden Gate Bridge!

Golden Gate Bridge, High and low level aerial views of San Francisco, CA, , Coit Tower, Pier 39, Seal Rock, Downtown San Francisco, Lombard Street, Cable Car, Oakland Bay Bridge, Golden Gate Ferry, Alcatraz, San Francisco City Hall, St Mary's Cathedral, Sutro Tower, TransAmerica and Bank of America Buildings.

This footage was captured by George Lang of The Big Picture Film & Video Arts in San Rafael, CA: http://www.thebigpicture.tv using a hand-held news camera from a Bell Jet Ranger flown by Ken Chase in the early '80's. It is a fine example of the perfect pairing and natural communication, both spoken and unspoken, between pilot and cinematographer in an unscripted, free-form setting.

The song is "Souvenirs" - Voyage (Available on Amazon)

Turn up the volume and ENJOY!

Yes it is very old which is cool cause you see SF with so few high rises and city hall the way it looked since the 1930's..As to the bridge shots.Was it legal? Anything is legal till you get caught. Not the worest thing we ever did.I should know I shot the video years ago all hand held with my ass hanging out of the copter.truth

...and ya' loved every minute of it, George! And you know that we tied you in once in a while. Truth of the matter about flying under the bridge in a helicopter is that it is not really illegal unless, of course, the actions cause undue risk, injury or damage to others. One of those gray areas. It's a totally different story in an airplane though, and that's one of the reasons that we love helicopters so much, right George?
