(siren blaring)

- Whoa, did you see that?

I just road up in a police car.

Look at what's behind me.

It's a police helicopter.

Are you ready to learn about

police helicopters today?

Yeah, let's go.

(playful music)

(police chatter on radio)

(helicopter whirring)

(siren blaring)

Whoa, look at the helicopter.

It's so neat.

Would you like to learn the

parts of the helicopter with me?

Come on.

(playful music)

Come down here.

This, this is a camera

and infrared system.

This is where from

the helicopter,

they can search

and find suspects.

And then up here,

this is where the pilot and

the copilot, the TFO sit.

And the landing skids.

Landing skids are

kind of like our feet.

You can land on the

ground anywhere you want.

Ooh, look down here.

This, this is the PA system.

This is how you communicate

with the ground.

Really loud speakers listen.

(speaking in foreign language)

Yeah.

Woo.

And right here, this

is a cargo compartment.

Look, I'll open it up.

(playful music)

That's where you store

all the tie downs

and the cover for

the helicopter.

And one of my favorite parts.

This is called the night sun.

It's basically a spotlight.

So then you can

point it at night

and see what you're looking at.

Whoa, this is an antenna.

This down here is an antenna

and whew, this is an antenna.

This is the name, the number

and letters of the helicopter.

Will you read it with me?

N, six, six, eight, P, D.

Will you do that again?

N, six, six, eight, P, D.

Great job, come on.

Whoo.

This is the horizontal

stabilizer fin.

And look, there's a

light right there.

That light on the

left side is red.

And on the right side of the

helicopter is the color green.

Come on, let's go

to the other side.

(playful music)

And right here, this

is the tail rotor.

The tail rotor is what

controls the helicopters spin

from going left, woo and right.

Whoa!

So this is the rear tail rotor.

I didn't tell you about

the main rotor, come on.

Wow, see up there.

That's where the helicopter

produces all of it's lift from.

Helicopters are so cool.

(playful music)

(helicopter blades whirring)

(horn beeping)

Hey, this is the fuel truck.

In the back here,

there's a lot of fuel.

(air brakes squeaking)

She's going to get out and hook

the hose to the helicopter.

Watch.

She's putting on gloves.

So she put on gloves so

none of the chemicals

in the fuel touch

her bare hands.

Oh, hey, there's the fuel cap.

Woo, It's getting nice and full.

(playful music)

Now that the helicopter's

full of fuel,

we can take it for a spin.

We're about to ride

inside the helicopter.

We all wore seat

belts and headsets

and they even wore helmets.

I'm ready.

(playful music)

What they're doing here

is turning on the engine

of the helicopter.

See?

See the main rotor spin.

Whoa, it's spinning so fast.

And There we go.

We have lift off!

(light music)

It's downtown Los Angeles.

Wow, look at those

tall buildings.

We're really high in the sky.

Look, we're higher

than the buildings.

We even flew past the

Griffith Observatory.

Foot-long, who

wants a foot-long?

And you can't forget

about the Dodgers stadium.

- Hey Blippi, you

wanna go see the beach?

- Yeah!

The TFO asked me if I

wanted to go to the beach.

So without a doubt, I said yeah.

(playful music)

Woo-hoo, we made

it to the beach.

(playful music)

And look, we're about to

pass the Hollywood sign.

Look!

It was a great time flying

in the LAPD helicopter.

There was no crime

and everyone was safe.

Wow.

Look, now we're

inside the helicopter.

I'll tell you about what's

inside the helicopter,

but first let me shut the door.

Okay, now that we're all locked

in, we need to buckle up.

'Kay, one belt around my waist

and two,

one, two, over my shoulders.

Whoa, look.

It's like a joystick.

This is the cyclic.

This is what you use to

operate the helicopter.

(imitates driving)

And the instrument panel.

Wow.

Like the altitude, the

airspeeds, the RPMs,

the aviation radios,

the police radios.

Wow.

Oh, hey, let me unbuckle

to show you this.

Look at this, this screen.

That's where you see

the camera, the FLIR.

And this is how you operate it.

Look at this controller.

It's so neat.

(imitates video game)

It's like a video game.

Oh, and last but not least,

binoculars.

These are used for

suspects from far away,

so you can see them.

Wow, I can see so far.

Whoa, hey, that's funny.
