[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you ask an ATP they’ll tell you this was something we all fully expected. The holes of the Swiss cheese: A demanding circle to land on runway 33 A published rotor route crossing the final approach Planes and helicopters on different frequencies Separation is visual “see and avoid” Overworked and undertrained ATC It’ll be 2 years but I expect the helicopter pilot will be faulted but there will be multiple contributing factors and recommendations. This was a completely foreseeable disaster. I am angry. [/quote] And firing Feds and bashing them daily on the Media isn’t going to help with ATC retention or experience. Senate Denocrats were against the expansion of this very very overcrowded airport. Selfish lawmakers pushed to have 5 longrange flights added when we can’t handle what we have now. Operating way over capacity. [/quote]
