Posted March 24, 2015 I was watching. News feed saw think to be lacofd bell airship. But Didn't have yellow color scheme it's all white with aircraft number on doors and looks like LACO lettering on tail. Is it being repainted or decomishioned. If so what are they going to replace it with? Look at clip around 1:18 you will see it. http://ktla.com/2015/03/23/brush-fire-burning-off-magic-mountain-parkway-in-santa-clarita/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 24, 2015 Seems to be it. Wonder why doesn't have the typical yellow paint scheme? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 25, 2015 I recall reading a blurb somewhere that I can't find right now, that Copter 17 was overhauled late '13 or early '14ish. They had planned to get it repainted when it returned from overhaul, but they needed to put it into service sooner than that due to major fires at the time.
