Notice: 
	On the morning of April 1st, 2006, an individual was granted access to
	a shared hanger at a University of Michigan Survival Flight satellite
	base in Livingston County Michigan.  The individual stated that he
	was an ?A&P mechanic for a King Air? (multiple company/vendor
	aircraft are hangered at this site).  While the crew was performing
	the morning checks of the helicopter, it was noted that the ELT had
	been activated.  The individual who had presented himself as a
	mechanic exited the building and was noted to be sitting in his car
	observing the crew on the ramp while performing their morning checks.
	 When approached, this individual again stated he was an ?A&P
	mechanic? and was ?interested in helicopters?.  He then drove away. 
	A license plate number was noted and a report was immediately filed
	with the Sheriffs Department in the County.  Subsequent evaluation of
	the aircraft by the pilot, mechanic and flight crew failed to reveal
	any damage to the aircraft, however the throttle was not in the "off"
	position.  
	
	This same individual was later recalled as having presented himself
	two days prior to the incident asking for a tour of the helicopter. 
	The Univeristy of Michigan police department and Livingston county
	Sheriff will be following up.
