N15AH (cn 58-1563) On the morning after celebrating my birthday, I was awoke by the sound of a helicopter echoing through the buildings around my hotel. It spent a good hour lifting palm trees off a flatbed truck on the street and taking them to an upstairs swimming pool area of my hotel below. Just over a year later, this helicopter crashed into a schoolyard after its tail rotor failed due to a broken gear, seriously injuring the pilot.

You were probably the only hotel guest not complaining about the noise.
