Grand Canyon crash that killed Britons happened on tribal land with fewer aviation regulations

Investigators are continuing to probe what caused a helicopter to plunge into the Grand Canyon as it emerged that the crash happened on tribal land where air tours are not as highly regulated as those inside the national park itself.

Three British tourists died when the helicopter went down early February.

They were in Las Vegas to celebrate a birthday and took a helicopter sightseeing tour on the Hualapai reservation.

Becky Dobson, 27, her boyfriend Stuart Hill, 30, and his brother, Jason Hill, 32-year-old lawyer died. Three friends and the pilot are in hospital where investigators want to interview them about what went wrong.
