PACOIMA — A Los Angeles TV news helicopter has been damaged in an emergency landing but the pilot and cameraman are uninjured.
Sister stations KCAL9 and CBS2 report that engine failure forced the hard landing about 8 a.m. Friday at Whiteman Airpark in the Pacoima.
Pilot Derek Bell says that as soon as the Eurocopter's engine began to fail he began autorotation and quickly brought the craft known as Sky 9 back to the airfield.
The helicopter's tail struck the ground and broke off but the craft landed upright on its skids.
