There was a whole thread about TCs bird before, in fact that was the thread that brought me to this forum. I think TCs chopper was being used by a utility company in the mainland, but the paint on TCs bird was actually standard factory paint, so you probably just saw one that looked like it. Still, Hawaii is a small place, it'd be interesting to find out who owns it and what they do with it. It's probably just the Government spraying Malathion and DDT on us for our own good though...

Also, aren't these guys:
http://paradisecopters.com/ using a 500D painted in the same scheme as TC's? I think this is mentioned on the home page. It was launched at the 2013 Heli-Expo...

Yeah Dan. That was my first thought. It's gotta be those guys. Funny how they're not promoting it on their website yet.
