Is there any particular service that uses helicopters with yellow/ blue and red stripes?
No other markings I can see

the IMI ambulances are that colour so could be air ambulance

Well I have seen IMI helicopters fly over before but they have all been yellow but with IMI written on them. This one has been roaming around the close area (as in overhead) for a couple of days. Not all day but circling over for 15 mins at a time, before going away, only to return hours later.

It sounds like you're seeing these guys.

hi
Yep thats the one............so wonder who was hiring them. Certainly a lot of potential building land around, but also Electric pylons fairly close by. No doubt something. A builder has just completed 6 houses so could be him using for aerial views, but would have thought a drone would be cheaper.....time will tell.

The power companies hire them to survey the lines; I've had them around.
Some Germans who live in campers in the forest got all paranoid, but I told them that no one is going to spend that much to look at you guys... The choppers followed the high tension lines, and stopped to circle around switches or anything that looked like it might need working on.

We also get NATO choppers, PT military choppers, and fire watch choppers.
