"Why dont we just ask the pilot of sky 2...."
I don't know him. But here's a video capture from an early portion of the video. It's not hard to identify.
And before the usual suspects accuse me of creating phony pictures, here is a link to the video from which the still was taken...KCAL news story Scroll forward to 1:34

I don’t know him either but I will ask him. This story burned out a week ago. Good Grief.

Here are a couple of quick attempts with Google Earth at putting my first guess as to the chopper's location and view bearing toward the target -- plus an estimate of the field covered by the photo you posted:

Here's my estimation of the bearing to the contrail and the field of view in this Sky2 image. This one is oriented to North, instead of to the photo's view direction, so the bearing should be pretty accurate.
