How to escape a Police Helicopter
Discussion
surely you've only got to go as far as the county line and they will stop following you?????
And I seriously doubt you will be able to. Long before the helicopter runs out of fuel it will have asked for another, neighbouring helicopter to replace it. You will run out of options before the helicoppter runs out of fuel.
And driving into a shopping centre/ The helicopter will move ground units in front of you. You wont get very far at all.
Still, it'll be a giggle though.

THe last time I managed to evade a police helicopter was by stealing a helicopter of my own.
Then I simply flew into the air at the same height as the police helicopter and flew around the back of it. When the Copperter tried to turn around to follow me I simply deftly manoevered my own Helicopter around keeping behind the police helicopter at all times so they couldnt actually see me.
Before too long they assumed my helicopter had become invisible and flown away so they went home and so did I. It was easy.

I'm not reading through six pages, but:
Drive to your local shopping centre/multiplex cinema etc., go inside, set off the fire alarms and come out with the crowd.
If you want to be really cunning, take off your jumper.
Setting off fire alarms, I didn't think of that one Drive to your local shopping centre/multiplex cinema etc., go inside, set off the fire alarms and come out with the crowd.

I wonder the % that get away, either from traffic chases or helicopters? They're never going to show them on the tele, of course, but if you're driving a fast car and are prepared to take risks that the police driver isn't, surely your chances are not bad until you get a team on you?

Hypothetically speaking... What is the best way to evade a Police Helicopter?
My best guess is to head into a large multi-storey car park then dump the car and hide in amongst the shoppers? However not sure that would work if you have to carry large Securicor cash box with you.
Any idea's welcome.

I think what worries me most is that one day, someone is actually going to do that.

flawed if they see you going in, usually only one entrance and exit? Want it to be busy to hide your movements but then you're going to be stuck in slow traffic and get caught before you get there.
A "pro" would be wearing a baseball cap and/or hoodie. Both of which can easily be removed r1ch said:
Too difficult to escape a helicopter, much rather drive to a busy public place and risk it on foot.
This is it.After taking the police on a dangerous chase about town you then start to run thus negating the point in trying to escape by car in the first place.

There is it's called "the ones that got away" & that includes a Rover Metro & no it wasn't a 6R4.Edited by MK4 Slowride on Friday 21st November 13:23
Drill hole in side of multistorey near window in fire esape passage and add rope loop night before.
Carry out heist, drive flat out like a loon to multistory shopping centre car park. Drive up several floors, set off fire alarms, then take loot and rappel down outside to waiting car and driver.
Oooh yeah!

Because no-one's going to notice four 'hoodies' abseiling down the side of a MSCP Carry out heist, drive flat out like a loon to multistory shopping centre car park. Drive up several floors, set off fire alarms, then take loot and rappel down outside to waiting car and driver.

Would abseiling down the side of a multi-storey car park with all of the punters you've just evacuated standing around outside not be a little obvious?
