If you were in the Hixson area, wondering about all the activity in the air, don't worry! Some Chattanoogans got a rare opportunity to ride in military helicopters Saturday.Chattanooga's Aviation Museum offered rides in the Huey and Cobra helicopters, and they're piloted by the Army.The mission of the Museum is to increase the public's awareness of aviation through the flight of historic aircraft.I love flying and I've always wanted to ride in a helicopter. I've flown in a little two-seater over Chattanooga, but this is a new experience and it's a beautiful day and I'm so excited to be here, said Ellyn Brooks, a member of the Flight Museum.Money raised from the helicopter rides will support the nonprofit flight museum and Erlanger Children's Hospital.
