[Vision2020] Helicopter

[Tom Hansen]

The code does not distinguish military from civilian aircraft, Kai.

In layman's terms, it simply states that if you fly too low so as to be of 
some sort of threat to the peace of those on the ground, you are in 
violation of Idaho code.

I am certain that if this aircraft were reported for violation of this 
statute, regardless military or civilian, appropriate action would be 
taken against the aircraft's pilot.

"So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't forget to 
have fun doin' it.  Lord, let your laughter ring forth.  Be outrageous, 
ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can 
produce.  And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer 
joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it 
was."
