When your car has a breakdown, you can pull off to the side of the road. When your boat has a breakdown, you probably can drop anchor where you are and start repairs. When your airplane has a breakdown, you can usually glide in for a landing on the road or a field. But when your helicopter has a breakdown, you have to land immediately. This helicopter was flying over the ICW when all of a sudden it turned around and made an emergency landing in what appeared to be a small clearing in front of these homes along the ICW. This all happened less than a 1/4 mile from us. The bewildered homeowners came out with their cameras and cell phones and started taking pictures, just as we did from the boat. It appeared it was a safe landing and that there were no injuries.
