Please read the article via the link, it is copyrighted. It looks like NBC tried to pull a GM Side-Saddle Gas Tank type set-up and got caught and the story will not run. This is awful. They tried it with fake bag-guys and tried to rent a Helicopter. The local airport folks called the athorities and they (NBC fake bad guys) had some explaining to do, to say the least.
