Good auto and great situational awareness to find a spot in the middle of a built up area. Shame of the powerlines though (they seem to be everywhere!).
On an other note : Flying in a single engine helicopter, low level, at night over a big built-up area, is that legal in the US?
Here in Holland you have to have a twin engine to fly over built up area's (single engine allowed if you have enough altitude to autorotate to the borders of the built up area).
Good to know that the two pilots had only minor injuries and that they could walk away from their craft!
