A Taiwanese pilot, accused of spying for China and arrested in August, was reportedly offered $15 million to defect by landing a U.S.-made CH-47 Chinook helicopter on the flight deck of a People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) helicopter.
having me. the tree is a big deal. asked by hawaii and maui county to assist with fires on both islands. it took a little more precedence for lahaina. 30 personnel assisting maui county police with traffic control because there are still about 16 roads that are closed on that island. also have another 30 that is assisting with search and rescue in wide area search and their work has probably helped get a more accurate number on the number of fatalities there. direct impact. we also have two c-47 chinook, you had some footage of the ch-47 helicopters doing fire suppression with the water buckets. they made 58 runs yesterday and dropped over 100,000 gallons on the fire. and when speaking to the pilots after the mission, they did say it made a difference and the winds being lowered, big help.
