Families at Healesville’s Queen’s Park on Sunday 9 January were surprised to see the Victoria Police Air Wing helicopter fly over and land in the open area.
The Air Wing was conducting routine patrols in the Healesville Area and the team were delighted to be greeted by locals on their arrival.
Due to the community interest, flight officers turned the routine operation into an impromptu static display and information session, allowing the public to ask questions about their role in the force and the sky and inspect the chopper.
Victoria Police Air Wing Tactical Flight Officer Mark Weekley was there on the day.
“It was great to meet the locals and talk about the work we do,” he said.
“We thank the community for their interest and continued support.”
