If you happen to find a helicopter window, please contact the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department:

The MPD’s “Otori 7″ helicopter departed the Tachikawa flight center on Tuesday afternoon. A crewmember noticed a change in atmospheric pressure while the helicopter was flying along the metropolitan expressway over the Ikejiri area of Setagaya Ward, and found the rear left window was missing. The loss of the window did not affect the flight, and the helicopter landed at its scheduled destination of Tokyo Heliport in Koto Ward. No injuries or damage were reported.

It says no injuries or damage were reported… yet. What if it went into a house window and killed someone inside? That’s a dangerous thing to have happen over a big city. Hope everything turns out alright with that and the window is just in an alley or something.

The two best places to start looking:
- Where you first noticed the air pressure change.
- Yahoo Japan auctions.
