[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now hearing that the ATC scopes showed a Collision Avoidance alarm for 16 seconds before impact. Count that out. And the. Ask if having half the number of controllers is a good idea. [/quote] The helicopter pilot assumed visual separation. This means it was the helicopter’s responsible to stay out of the way of the incoming plane. If the helicopter was lower (under 200’) or saw the correct plane it could avoid the plane. Did not happen but visual separation is on the pilot not the ATC.[/quote]
