Our web site: myfoxla.com get's better every day. We have everything to keep you connected with us when you are away from the TV or we are away from covering news on air. One great feature that we've had for sometime that I want to remind you all about..is our SkyFox streaming. Yes, whenever we are up and flying during the morning show we are streaming on the web. You can see our live pictures and listen in to our conversations up in SkyFox. You can hear me talk to my producers down on the ground and see how I prepare for a live report during the morning show. It's great stuff and very entertaining! So..log on to our web site some morning when you are at the office and click on the SkyFox live bottom and check it out. We usually stream from about 5:30 am to 9:30 am Monday through Friday. Write me back and let me know what you think. And don't forget to set you home page to myfoxla.com! It's FOX 11 24-7..Have a great week everyone-Rick

Hey Rick,

Just wanted to drop in and say hey.. Doing much better with the recovery from my surgery, still not out running yet.. takin it slow

I almost feel like I owe you guys some avgas money for taggin along in the mornings,(laughing)

I caught coverage one morning (last week??) with the fog bank that just coated LA and out towards the coastline, with the Buildings piercing up thru the fog... awesome view.

I'm in and out in the mornings and try to catch what I can.... I haven't been out to the West Coast since I was a kid... so its always cool to catch some footage of whats going on out there... Catching the sneek peek over top of the Studios backlots, whats happenin along the coast line... Good stuff always!

My dad doesn't fly all that much anymore (I think its the fact, he has to pay to fly, rather than be paid to fly) But my brother has his fixed wing rating... So maybe as the weather gets better here in Ohio... I'll shoot a Corn report or something from the air for you... (laughing)

Have a good one!

Tim

Enjoy the streaming and thoroughly enjoy the GDLA website. Here is an idea: You need to have a cup of 'Coffee Bean' or 'Starbucks' in the background during streaming to help subsidize the cost of flying that whirlybird.

HowardM, product placement is a great idea but Rick would choose 7-11 coffee!
Am I right, Rick?
Miss you guys in the morning but the new Realtime Traffic Webcast is going great.
Everyone should check it out on MyFoxLA from 4:45pm to 6:15pm every week day.
