[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why were they flowing 200 feet above the maxixmum altitude. And on top of that not seeing a plane that is descending right in front of them. Seems the helicopter did so many things wrong. Doesn’t really make sense.[/quote]

Watch the video shared above. It’ll help you understand. [/quote]

DP, I watched the video and it’s excellent however it does not answer the question WHY the helicopter was 200 feet above the maximum altitude Recommend recommended for that area of the flightpath. [/quote]

One of the comments on the YouTube was from another pilot who says he overhears the ATC telling helicopters at DCA they’re too high all the time.[/quote]
Lovely.

At night when DCA is still operating?!? [/quote]

I was just coming here to mention that comment on the YouTube video. I was a passenger coming into Dca on a flight a couple of years ago scheduled to land at 9:45. All of a sudden we banked up a few minutes away from landing and took a circle around to land again. The pilot apologized and sort of laughingly said we had a helicopter in our way the first time.

I’m going to start going in the entertainment ATC systems to listen in every time I’m departing and landing at DCA. [/quote]
