1. The helicopter was flying too high. Might have also been further from shore than Perha have been. Night goggles might have made it more difficult.
2. The controller was doing two jobs--according to report s the supervisor had combined the job 40 minutes prior to the crash. He/she was directing both helicopters and planes usually two people.
3. The airline was asked to use a different runway than originally planned--not clear when the request was made for a change.
DCA is too busy and is understaffed. And here Trump wants even more staff cuts and even less regulation.

Nope it was the unqualified DEI Air Traffic controllers. Now Trump and the Republicans just need to apply pressure to the investigators so the “investigation” shows the same thing.
There is at present ZERO evidence that DEI had anything to do with the collision. NONE.

Pretty sure DUI hire is meant as a shot across the bow vs the right wing "DEI hire" stuff, since Pete Hegseth is a DRUNK.

The gaslighting is infuriating.
I worry about this investigations....will we get real answers/information or tainted, dishonest dumpy information. Sad times when you can't trust anyone due to the chaos being created in government but your "president" and his cabinet.
I don't think some of the families will rest until they get real answers. They've lost everything so there's not much Trump can threatened to do to them.

I trust nothing under this administration. I would have under his first term, but no longer. He has proven himself untrustworthy and vindictive, not unlike the first term but now he only has sycophants around him.

Nobody is worried. The Black Hawk slammed into the jetliner like a guided missile.
What will the DUI hire do about it?
I just can’t get over the fact that Hegseth didn’t appear at the news conference four hours after the crash. It was already evident that a military craft hit a civilian airliner in the shadow of the Pentagon. When the crash happened in 1982, it was afternoon and many people from the Pentagon actually helped in the rescue.
Do you mean DEI, or are you suggesting someone was DUI?
