It looks fascinating can you please explain what is going on ( we would not see anything like that in the UK)

It was a machinegun shoot. One of the attractions was this helicopter. Its a Vietnam era Army Chopper. It was shot down 4 times and from what I understand, it was restored by the pilot.

A couple of venders got to shoot their machineguns from the helo.
