Helicopter Traffic Reports

[Karen McTrotsky]

Chip Whittemore was employed by WEEI as a news anchor and reporter when he
filled in on the copter. The pilot was Red Bank who reportedly was filling
in for Rex.

Kevin O'Keefe was not replaced by MDC cop Bill Connell. He as replaced by
two women. One was Georgia Pappas (a licensed pilot) the other was from the
promotions department.

Art McTague was Dan Donovan between Johnny Dark and Blaine Harvey.

Bruce Talford, a Manchester NH native, and an  Air Force veteran, later
worked as Bruce Wayne in Los Angeles with the K-F-Eye in the sky. When he
was killed in 1986  when the fixed-wing he piloted (because he thought it
safer than a helicopter)  crashed, his wife reportedly rushed to the scene
and did on-air reports on the crash and Talford's career. The GM reportedly
had a fatal heart attack on hearing the news.  His first WHDH report was on
Independence day, 1961
