LAKEPORT, Calif. – After being grounded for a week due to mechanical issues, a helicopter used in fighting a wildland fire northwest of Lakeport was flown out of the Scotts Valley area.
The California National Guard Black Hawk helicopter – which had been brought in to fight the Scotts Fire – was grounded on Friday, Sept. 7.
The helicopter was removed this past Thursday with the help of a larger Chinook helicopter.
Officials said a truck couldn't be brought in to move the helicopter, which was attached to a cable and lifted out of the area.
The removal operation can be viewed above in video shot by John Jensen of Lake County News.
