How to use HELICOPTER in a sentence?

1. Blade CEO Rob Wiesenthal:

   We measure the value of the route by the time that it takes to fly by helicopter versus the time it takes to drive, and we're now turning 6-hour drives into 35-minute flights, it's obviously not going to be as inexpensive as Uber, but for people who value their time more than the cost it does make sense.

2. Carlos Ferraz:

   Currently natural parks use a lot of resources against poaching, two very clear examples are, in the first place, the hiring of helicopters to chase poachers or locate elephants or things like these. They use a big part of their budget for that. With the budget national parks spend on a three month helicopter rental, we could fill the air with drones. And use technology better. On the other side, if they need to monitor the perimeter of the whole area they use two or three-men crews. What we could achieve if we placed drones in specific parts of the park is full monitoring of the park in only a few hours or a few minutes.

3. Sibtain Ahmed:

   The helicopter came very close to the helipad, maybe 250 meters in the air, just above the school, it hovered there for a while and then tried to turn when it crashed. Thankfully there were no kids in the school because it was an off-day for security reasons. The helicopter caught fire and was on fire for over an hour.

4. Sohail Afridi:

   Since 3 a.m. the rescue operation has been underway. The injured have been taken to the hospital via helicopter.

5. Donald Trump:

   Look, I know you probably have a lot of questions for me about this impeachment nonsense, i'd love to answer every single one of them, believe me I do, but as you can see from this very loud, running helicopter behind me I'm in a big, big hurry right now. So I don't really have the time but everything is perfect, okay ?
