The number of aerial filming accidents makes it's clear that the pressure/glamour of being associated with TV, corrupts flight safety.

From the planning stage onwards, producers are very persuasive.

With this in mind who actually charted the flight, the Football team or the TV Network?

Was the pilot given ample warning that TV crew and production staff were to be onboard?

Were the (reported but not confirmed) technical crew carrying large amounts of camera gear?
Enough to cover the match or just a few interview cameras?

Were interviews conducted on the flight deck during the flight?

Did the (possible) prescence of a camera (GoPro or manned) on the flight deck deter the pilot from declaring a fuel emergency?
