Wow, just wow, many probably died and you bring up this crap?
JV Dunce is asking for thoughts and prayers on Twitter. Nothing yet from the Golfer-In-Chief…
Can we take a break from politics on this one.
He's just being like one of you guys.
Why the fk do people make this shit about politics? Fuk.
You, Aaron Rupar and whoever the hell Brandon Friedman is are human scum. That interview was clearly hours before the crash. Take this shit to one of your other insane rants.
Severe mental illness.
local tv just said plane is split in two
CNN reported 3 military personnel as passengers on the BlackHawk.
No. Not absolutely related.
My wife flew out of Reagan tonight on AA to LAX. She’s on approach and understandably freaking out.
This was a Wichita to DC flight. Given the FAA and Aerospace presence in Wichita it wouldn’t be surprising if there where FAA employees on this flight.
Terrible situation, our US airspace is overcrowded and this helo may have been flying around with no TCAS transponder. If both had them it would have triggered a TCAS alert on both aircraft telling them to immediately move away from each other.

Yeah, I put him on ignore.
I wouldn’t say overcrowded. The whole network can handle the traffic. It’s small local choke points that are the issue. Many knew it was coming eventually. DCA being probably the biggest red flag of them all. The whole airspace system needs restructured and overhauled but the country can handle the traffic fine. They need to invest and change hiring practices in ATC. (This isn’t DEI, it’s how to properly staff and train) It is not the time to be cheap and gut.
My mind goes about a million directions when hearing of this kind of thing right now.
Lives lost. Meaninglessly. Please. Someone tell me this was an absolutely an accident.

We all bleed red. Please pray for survivors.
Occam's razor. Most likely scenario is it was an accident.
If you are ever in dc, you'll see multiple helicopters flying around non-stop. I'm truly surprised it didn't happen sooner. My condolences to everyone but it appears from video the blackhawk flew into the plane. Some of those pilots fly using night vision goggles which reduces or eliminates depth perception so it reduces response time to take evasive action significantly.
Occam has served me well over the years.
I used to see Marine Force 1 flying every 30 minutes around the Potomac River on 2016-2017.
To me I don’t think there was much the AA pilots could do looking at that video. That helicopter just flew into them pretty damn fast and they were at 300 feet.
What was the flight in the 80s that crashed in to the Potomac? Sad deal. Hope they can save as many as possible.
Good lord, how does this happen? Hope for survivors but there needs to be some questions of military leadership.
