About drones ever since they started flying sometimes in the same airspace used by planes and helicopters. The drone operator was found. That near miss happened about 800 feet off the ground as a helicopter was flying along highway 4 in martinez. It was the more oil and alhambra exits. Just how close that drone came to the chopper. Reporter 30 feet apart, ken, way too close. This story might have had a much different ending if not for the quick action of the flight crew.
