Why is there an apparent assumption that the News helicopter was 'first on scene'? Inaccurate as the news items can be, Boeing are quoted:
Boeing confirmed they owned the Bell 212 support aircraft. A flight of three aircraft lifted off from Falcon Field and the downed helicopter was one of two support aircraft for an Apache Longbow helicopter on a routine mission.
Is it inconceivable that the other support helicopter was in attendance, negating any requirement for the News machine to land? Could it also be possible that the local HEMS machine was arriving at the same time as the News helicopter?
There are occasions when there are an awful lot of assumptions made here, which then get rapidly converted to facts
