The helicopter shape seems to move North of the crash location and is not captured falling into the water unlike the plane. It looks to fall or disappear into the land mass. I have looked on maps and north of the crash site vicinity, there are no rivers or bodies of water behind a land mass or beyond river.
The pinkish coloured mark in the lower middle of this screenshot is the splash of the Blackhawk hitting the water.
It's at about 31 seconds into
