[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just heard the pilot of the helicopter was a woman. Trump, Hegseth and MAGA are getting ready to ramp up their “I Told You So” tour.[/quote] You heard from Fox or maybe one of the MAGA nuts? It is clearly a male voice from the radio. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=r90Xw3tQC0I[/quote] Man, the male helo pilot (or copilot) said at both ATC warnings that yes, they have visual separation and then went and crashed into the underside of the jet. W T F. [/quote] They could have been watch another plane. It is in the video. Though he could have stopped. Helicopter can hover.[/quote] No. Look at the radar. [b]If the helicopter pilot was looking at another plane, he was staring out the side window of the helicopter.[/b] The plane he crashed into is directly in front of him. Even accounting for the fact the plane is descending in altitude and the dark, there is no plausible way the helicopter pilot though they were talking about one of the other planes. There was only one other plane in the vicinity and it's to the side and behind the helicopter. Also the ATC identifies the aircraft by call sign, which presumably should have shown up on helicopter radar as well.[/quote] Dude, they have navigational tools and fly off those most of all! They know an approaching aircraft’s altitude, speed, angle. If pilot was “looking out since wrong side window” at a different jet farther away, that’s malpractice, malfeasance, negligence and pure idiocy. They look at both the navs and outside visuals. Guess which one is most accurate? To the point that in a white out or black out situation they only use it? The Navs! [/quote] Something dumb happened here. And if it’s a cascade of substandard DEI admittances and promotions, so be it. We need to know. [/quote] If it turns out she was piloting, it was the man who radioed they saw the plane. So, it can't entirely be her fault. I mean if you're headed straight for a plane, aren't the other two people on board going to start shouting? If this is going to be some DEI thing, I think we have to be honest that likely all of them are at fault, and perhaps whoever ordered them to be flying then. [/quote] Don’t let yourself be manipulated so easily. NO ONE was focused on the race or gender of the pilots before Trump out that in your head. [/quote] Um, Pete Buttigeig spent 4 years focusing on race of people in the aviation industry, and specifically complaining there were too many white people. Google it. Here, I’ll help you out for starters: https://abc7.com/pete-buttigieg-aviation-industry-compton-airline-issues/12033844/[/quote] No one considered this topic to be relevant to the crash, until Trump raised it. When asked for his evidence, all he came up with was “common sense.” [/quote] - except if you simply google Buttigeig’s public statements for the last 4 years, he constantly spoke about: Diversity. How about we maybe focus now on safety instead? Is that too much to ask?? (And safety is the topic here)[/quote] He most definitely stressed safety as well! Did you just Google his name and diversity or did you also Google his name and safety? You get what you look for. If you're only looking for diversity that's all you're gonna find. [/quote]
