[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One interesting, mostly crazy rumor is that this was a test of self-flying technology - think Waymo but for helicopters. The human crew was there as safeguards. Yes, it’s wild and seemingly far-fetched, but it would at least explain the currently inexplicable maneuvers made by the chopper right before impact. Ever seen a self-driving car trying to handle conflicting data? [/quote] I highly doubt any military pilot would try that by an airport. DCA is notoriously dicey as it is. It’s counter-intuitive for those of us who fear flying, but most pilots don’t like risk. That’s a job for test pilots who are a different group altogether. [/quote]
