[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is horrible, and I feel so badly for the families and loved ones.

Real question -- is DCA simply unsafe to fly in and out of? Too much traffic over the Potomac to be safe? Was this inevitable? I just checked the upcoming flights I have and they are out of Dulles and I'm tempted to not fly out of DCA again, even though I usually have. [/quote]

No.

I’ve lived here since 2004 and fly a lot for work and family reasons, as does my husband. And have lived and worked in Arlington, DC and bethesda.

Sure I’ve seen military or news or hospital helicopters.

But life never seen a helicopter hit a landing plane 800M from the runway.

Were the directives really to have a descending commercial jet plane at 300-400’ have a black hawk at 200’ under it?

Never saw that over 20 years either. As a driver, cyclist, boating, runner, plane passenger, airport waiter, etc .  Never saw a descending jet at 300’ with a military footer under it by a close margin. [/quote]
