Black Hawk Patrol

Statue of Liberty Patrol; Photo - NewsdayNewsday focuses on the Black Hawks patroling New York. "The Black Hawks, normally assigned to counter-narcotics operations with the Customs Department, are airborne most of the day above New York and Washington. If one isn't aloft, members of New York's 50-person team can be airborne within eight minutes."

Gothamist is obsessed with counting how many times Black Hawks pass the uptown office's windows everyday. So far, the record is 3 on a Saturday morning, but Gothamist was admittedly focused on reading the Times.
