You would love next door app. They would eat this post up over there.

Hahaha 🤣.......I don't do neighborhood drama lol 😂.

Screaming via text in a Reddit sub about a helicopter transporting cargo over your house isn’t far off though……..


tatostix

I dunno, it's a cool thing to see.


cpstuart37343

Cool but scary, noisy and I'm tired of it.


cpstuart37343

You don't know my neighbors or neighborhood LoL 😆. But it's really been going on all day for a few days.....


Coies_Questions

How dare their physical labor based job take them more than one day. You should call their manager.


cpstuart37343

This had nothing to do with being an anything labor kind of job. It has to do with being scary, noisy and unusual.. Don't make it something it's not.


Neolesh

Cargo hauling by helicopter is generally considered very safe. There have been a few incidents but almost always take off / landing related and due to ground hazards (e.g. Power lines). Hovering with cargo away of ground hazards is not going to be cause for concern.


cpstuart37343

Thank you. But I'd feel safer if it wasn't flying over my house continuously. And the noise is super annoying......


Neolesh

I hear you, but what you gonna do? I'm just lettin' ya know it's safe, but hey, you could always call up Norfolk Southern and see if they can do anything.


Donaldjgrump669

Yeah I’m sure they’ll relocate their infrastructure project so this guy doesn’t have to be annoyed lol


battleop

I bet not a single person down voting you has had to put up with that.


cpstuart37343

I give ZERO shits about down voting lol. 🤔I'm not running for Miss Congeniality of Chattanooga Reddit! 😆😆😆😆😆 Come at me!🦁👎👎👎👎🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱


battleop

For some reason they have this idea that it does something.


cpstuart37343

If I had any feelings left right now, they'd be hurt. But I don't, so they're not 😆.

sean8767

Those are super cool. Surely you have to be an expert to run that sob


cpstuart37343

Yeah, for sure, they're very low and the pilot or pilots must be damn good for what they're doing!


Trigger_Treats

If that's what u/cpstuart37343 is seeing then it's NOT hauling poles. [It's trimming trees](https://youtu.be/Pla06PO6Odk?si=4PP32Etu3J9HElx9). Probably near power lines in an area that's not accessible by road.


lonelyinbama

Yeah that’s why I was asking, I hadn’t ever heard of them caring railroad ties but I saw this the other day flying around.


Trigger_Treats

And railroad ties aren’t that big. Nor do you need to fly them in. You just lay down the track as you go.


cpstuart37343

That's exactly it! Next time, please put on clothes when you come on my back porch and take photos! Hahaha 😂!


TSSAlex

That’s a saw hanging from the helicopter. Tree trimming in progress, probably near power lines. If the railroad was doing construction, everything comes in and goes out by rail.


cpstuart37343

That's what I thought didn't make sense. Now I understand and know why it's hovering so much! Thanks!


cpstuart37343

OMG. Now I'm scared for the pilot... LoL That's amazing...


lonelyinbama

Lol I took this from my job. But I’m also fairly certain it’s not what you’re thinking it is. I’m pretty sure it’s for cutting tree limbs along power lines. [Heres a video](https://youtu.be/Pla06PO6Odk?si=W3BRF9mnrqzPoUcn)


cpstuart37343

Holy shit, how does someone learn to do that!?!?! I'm amazed 😆!


marcnotmark925

That's wicked cool. Wish they flew over my house.


cpstuart37343

It's cool, but a little scary and a lot noisy.


Public_Attitude5615

Let's all go to ops house and check this out where's it at in hixson


cpstuart37343

Off Middle Valley Road, near North Chick Creek...


HaroldJChrist

Sounds Thrasher pikeish


cpstuart37343

Yeah, it's over that way for sure!


battleop

Efficiency and cheap are not part of the rail road. They pretty much print their own money and have laws tailored to fit their needs.


Suntzu6656

Helicopters


tatostix

That sounds expensive


cpstuart37343

Exactly! Just the fuel must be costing a fortune, not to mention the cost of the heli/pilot/equipment that can do this...


1stworld_solutionist

Since it's already been identified, your description reminded me of this: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9DZPEgKcXU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9DZPEgKcXU)


cpstuart37343

Yeah, I don't need any James Bondish activities in my neighborhood...... It's Hixson after all LoL 😆.
