We’ve had a few questions about those helicopters, part of a larger group that flew over West Seattle twice this morning/midday. We don’t have the definitive answer (yet) as to why. We wondered if they might have been headed to/from the big 520 floating-bridge grand-opening celebration, but WSDOT tells us no, no helicopters involved aside from their aerial-video crew. One possibility: The Museum of Flight at nearby Boeing Field is celebrating U.S. Coast Guard Day today, and the advance info mentioned helicopters – possibly including MH-60 Jayhawks, which the helicopters in Christopher’s photo resemble.
