N925TV — live tracking every few seconds while it is in the air, and who this aircraft is the rest of the time.
Sky5 is the live news helicopter of KTLA Channel 5, Los Angeles' CW affiliate. It covers breaking news across the LA basin — pursuits, fires, traffic, and the overhead live shots that anchor LA's morning newscasts — and it launches alongside the other station helicopters on the big stories. The FAA registers the airframe to Tiny Bubbles Aviation Inc.
We have recorded Sky5 over 256 neighborhoods across Southern California, 3467 passes in all — most recently over Pacoima on 17 October.
Counted from this site's own observations of the public ADS-B feed, not from a flight plan — a pass is a visit we watched, and the list is what we have seen, not everywhere this aircraft has been.
Our record ties Sky5 to 63 scenes, the 8 most recent below.
This record starts on 10 August and only includes scenes GTLA opened a page for — most of them opened automatically, when our tracking saw helicopters gather over one spot or follow a chase — so it is not a complete history of where this aircraft has flown.
