Metal-Detecting Helicopter Searches for Bombs


An unusual looking helicopter is helping the Navy clean up a bombing range in Florida’s Ocala National Forest. The chopper’s 20 foot-long arms are equipped with metal detectors that can scan the forest for exploded or unexploded bombs. The Orlando Sentinel says the contraption works in the same way as the guy on the beach with the metal detector combing for jewelry and coins.
