NSTAR Helicopter to Be in Lexington Again Friday

If you see a low-flying helicopter flying over Lexington it is likely from the power company.


As reported on Lexington Patch residents may see a low-flying helicopter in town. 

As a way of soothing possible concerns the Town of Lexington posted to its web site that NSTAR will be conducting aerial inspections of transmission lines ​on Thursday and Friday of this week, according to NSTAR's Community Relations representative. 

The helicopter is an orange and white Bell206BIII with tail number 134VG. The helicopter will be flying at a moderate speed approximately 400 - 500 feet above the ground. These aerial inspections take place several times during the course of the year.
