[SBE] Is a new day dawning on regulating news choppers? (About time)

Is the FAA doing the work of station management?

It's dangerous up there. Perhaps four lives lost is cause for asking  
for a little sanity.

Would anyone on this board attempt to fly a helicopter and tell the  
public about the car chase below and coordinate the many complex tasks  
involved with four or five aircraft in close proximity to one another,  
all at the same time? I'm amazed that chopper reports go as smoothly  
as they do.
