Helicopter pilots like Paul Pignataro often talk about “the golden hour.” The idea is that if an emergency medical helicopter can get an injured person to the hospital in an hour or less, their chance of survival goes up dramatically. But there’s another golden hour, as Paul’s photo shows off this week, one that photographers seek out. It’s the magical time after sunrise when the sky is utterly beautiful.

The View: Early morning fog.

The Pilot: Paul Pignataro.

The Aircraft: Airbus H-125 helicopter.

The Mission: Returning home after an early morning callout.

The Memory: Unable to land at home airport (due to the fog) and having to divert to KFMY. Fortunately at KFMY, the coffee was hot and the popcorn freshly popped. Thanks Base Ops!
