Default Chopper low over Western Sydney

There is a helicopter circling low over the St Clair and Erskine Park region at the moment. I think it might be on of the Air Ambulance a/c (red and white) markings. Quite a number of people outside there homes having a bit of a peak since its quite noisy.

The Sydney live ATC feed seems to be down so I can't listen in to what's going on. Anyone know any more info?

Russell I live in St Clair and heard it too; got a quick peek before it was too low. According to my Radarbox it was Augusta A139 VH-SYV which Grahame showed some photos of in a recent thread.

Ahh cheers Peter. That was the rego I was after.

You live in St Clair? Wow. I'm next door in Erskine Park. It's a small world.

Cheers
