The chopper slowed near power lines and was less than a few hundred feet off the ground at times, readers said.
PECO spokesperson Kristina Pappas said the helicopter was contracted by the utility.
“The helicopter transmission line patrols are part of PECO’s ongoing efforts to ensure safe and reliable service for customers. The helicopters are used to complete visual inspections of electrical equipment to identify any maintenance work that may be needed,” she said.
