W-ABC Camera Type IdentificationW-ABC Camera Type IdentificationBy Nico Haupt, March 30 2006 CNN and FOX showing the same synched local 'live' feed from W-ABC (ABC7), by using a military camera system http://www.911closeup.com/nico/WABC_startof2ndhit_clip.jpg
Only 1-2 minutes after the '2nd attack', CNN and FOX stop to broadcast the same synched local feed from W-ABC (ABC7) At the end of the synched W-ABC 7 pick-up feed you can clearly recognise parts of a helicopter cam attachment (see below, to be identified later) Note: FOX then switches to local W-CBS feed, who had no own live footage of 2nd hit (CBS only aired at an unknown time, much later after the second attack, some footage allegedly 'filming' some flying object, buttering into the front, see collections here)

Identification of the W-ABC Camera System http://www.911closeup.com/nico/WABC_908_WESCAM.jpg
At around 9:08 AM EST, FOX TV goes back to the original W-ABC live camera (no 'tight shot' anymore), now showing for only 1 second, then suddenly zooming out again, the identification of the camera type: A "WESCAM". A "WESCAM" is a special anti-vibration camera that mounts on a helicopter and delivers some really stellar visuals. We know, that this helicopter was steady the whole time and that all media choppers had been whisked out of the area. Why would a regular media copter remain steady at this position, already before the second hit, not moving at all? Why also did this unidentified helicopter chose a position where the South Tower is hidden and covered by the North Tower, instead of flying just a little bit to the side, to get a better angle? Was this chopper really from W-ABC or maybe one of the identified U.S. Helicopters, as seen on some footage at time of second hit and confirmed on WINS. After both attacks also on the footage of Rick Siegel (911eyewitness.com), you can visibly notice 14-16 other helicopters, who passed the crime scene Who was the pilot of the "W-ABC broadcast" and who was the cameraman?
Why did U.S. Miltary Helicopters had been in time before the second hit, but no F-16? Did these military media perps really film a flying object? Or would the original footage reveal an empty lanscape, then in reality upgraded with a 'live'-CGI, synched and uploaded via vector-keying? WESCAM is a military camera system The "WESCAM" was actually improved and integrated into the U.S. military, specificially as part of L-3 Communication: (Note: L-3 Communications was created in April, 1997 with the purchase of business units that were part of the Loral Corporation and Lockheed Martin merger in 1996) http://www.911closeup.com/nico/WABC_L3_wescam.gif
Among their features are:

The L-3 Iraq war connection http://content.answers.com/main/content/img/webpics/Jay_Garner.jpg
L3 became more popular regarding the bio of Jay Garner, who was appointed by US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to head the Office of Reconstruction and Humanitarian Assistance in post-war Iraq. He had also directed several major Defense Department programs, was Commander of Space and Strategic Defense Command and assistant Chief of Staff until his retirement in 1997. After retiring as a three-star general, Garner became president of SY Technology, a provider of communications and targeting systems for missiles which was bought in January 2002 by L-3 Communications for a reported $48 million. ...more here: http://www.911closeup.com/nico/WABC_cam_identification.html and http://www.911closeup.com/nico/
