EL CAJON, Calif. (KGTV) - A news helicopter had what County of San Diego officials called a “troubled” landing in El Cajon Tuesday.

The incident with the Bell 206B helicopter was reported about 2:15 p.m. in the parking area of Gillespie Field at 681 Kenney St., Santee Fire reported.

Video recorded by the news helicopter appears that it was a normal landing in which the helicopter skids land on a movable platform called a dolly. The dolly can then be pulled into a hangar. It seems from the last seconds of the video clip that one of the helicopter skids may have missed the platform and the chopper then tipped over.
 
Hello dolly?
 
I still like the video of the one TV news chopper filming the other on fire over LA and the pilot and camera man babbling about how to get ahold of the other guy to let him know he’s on fire.

Then chasing him around and filming the emergency landing in a parking lot.

So very ... LAish.
