In case you missed it, read more on the commissioning of Copter 3, the queen of the Santa Barbara County Air Support Unit. Project: Rescue Flight raised all funds for this ship, costing not a dime of taxpayer money.

After nearly 10 years of raising private funds for the purchase, officials take flight with the state-of-the-art Huey chopper.
