In this photo provided by the University of New Mexico Hospital, a medical helicopter is removed from the roof of University of New Mexico Hospital on Saturday, April 12, 2014 in Albuquerque, N.M. UNM spokesman Billy Sparks says the hospital remained fully operational during the process. Sparks says the hospital temporarily converted to using power from an internal generator, eliminating the potential for any accidents ignited by outside power sources. Sparks says a tail section was the first piece removed followed by jet fuel, which was channeled into special hazmat barrels, and then the helicopter's body. Officials are hoping to begin construction repairs to the roof by Saturday night. The helicopter crashed on Wednesday. (AP Photo/University of New Mexico Hospital courtesy of John Arnold)
