If you want to live the excitement of flying aimlessly around Chicago until news breaks, pop over to AirFox Live. Chicago’s WFLD has outfitted its news chopper with GPS and its current position as well as what it’s filming appears in a Google Maps window next to the live video feet. Jason Kinkaid at TC says it’s riveting stuff but I don’t want to spoil it for you. It’s usually live at 5:30-8:30 AM CST and whenever news is breaking in the Windy City, which could be any time knowing the excitement that is Schaumburg and its surroundings.
