Says he ran into the channel 6 news truck.
Nothing worse than hitting a company vehicle with a company vehicle.

I guess they were paying too much attention to Steadycam 360 and not enough to where they were flying.

I just find this funny: Link quote: Ranger 8 was over the scene shortly after it happened and you could see the chopper in three large pieces on the ground.
Personally I liked channel 6 helicopter and hope the replace it.

Ch. 6 didn't have any good shots of the debris, their reporter was behind a police line I guess. They need a helicopter to get better shots of the accident. [:O]

This is why every TV station needs to have a chopper, nothing would have shown how cool you are than aerial coverage of your rivals wrecked helicopter.

If they are good at their jobs, the camera was rolling and the reporter was giving a play by play..."We're spinning, the pilot's trying to regain control, he just yelled to 'hold on'...I've just crapped my pants. I'll tell you how bad at 10."
