If you thought you were truly in helicopter hell this morning, you were only partly right. Most of the racket was being made by a pair of V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft (we’ve seen these before) that were circling the area and occasionally touching down at the Downtown Heliport. This was part of the Fleet Week events. Your correspondent got a video of one from the Promenade. Meanwhile, Karl took his cam to Battery Park yesterday morning and caught the parade of ships entering the Hudson, and some planes flying over. Two videos after the jump.
