Actually there were a lot of kiteboarders out on Puget Sound both days, and it's a real wonder that one of the choppers didn't tangle it up with one of them. If it had, the results would not have been pretty, as the string they use is strong enough it could create a serious problem for the chopper.
I understand the chopper guys have a right to chase, but I also agree they were flying dangerously. Granted, they were out over the water much of the time, but they were also flying very low.
