Thank you Gman and Dave S...I was on work OT Saturday AM and they only allowed 4hrs this day so I started at 0500am, out at 900am and went to cruise by RDD across the street after I left. I was totally surprised to see the flight of 4 on the helipad. The crews were just starting to get the ships ready when I pulled up. I then moved over by the tower and Redding Air Services parking lot and had sat there taking a few snaps. The building is surrounded by cameras and the guy inside must have seen me and came out and took me out on the ramp for about 1.5 hrs.- total lucky day!
