I'm hoping to go on a helicopter tour to shoot for the urban landscapes challenge, but you need at least 3 people to fly up. Anyone interested later this week?

Edit: 3 people

it would suck to get up there..and realize:

a.) dead battery with no spare
b.) no memory card..

I certainly can't go this week, but I visit the area at least once a year and might be interested in the future. Can you post or PM me a link to the tour company?

So, basically, it looks like it costs about $3-400 total to book a flight. I'm not sure which tour I'd be most interested in; I'd probably be trying to get some stock photos as well as souvenirs -- I wouldn't want to go over too many restricted buildings.
