He could be right. We will find out the truth soon.

He could have said the Camp David Accords caused this and you'd reflexively agree.

I can't believe they have military aircraft testing right next to an international commercial airport. Seems like a disaster waiting to happen.

That was an ignorant comment for him to make.

That was an ignorant comment for him to make.

not really, airline incidents went up 65% in 2023/24

If you employ based on gender and ethnicity rather than competence what do you expect?

Modern Tech should have spotted the Airplane

The Black Hawk should easily have spotted the Airplane and avoided it but i know the reason now

[Tom]

newsflash: it was 2 WHITE MEN piloting the helicopter, with a WHITE female who was in training but NOT, NOT in charge of any of the controls or flying the helicopter...

Trump was wrong and should be ashamed for making a idiotic comment... end of story...

Trumpster has no shame.

For anyone to speak on a subject/incident without any proof, knowledge, information, or expertise whatsoever, and claim they know how it is because they possess "common sense' is absurd.. he is no different than the "woke" left who he claims to despise

Pete Bootyjuice is a phaggot demoncrat politician. Under his leadership, his departments have seen a steady increase in “issues”.

[mryorkielover]

This is the result of Obama's 2013 policy. DEI is not just about race. It's about putting people in charge or on jobs that have no business or skill to be in that job. This video explains it all and connects the dots to everything leading up to this crash. The Dems and their shitty policies are to blame. And we will see more of this over time because A LOT of unqualified people got jobs in the last 12 years because of DEI. It's disgusting and anyone who thinks Diversity is our strength is and idiot.

First time hearing a Black Hawk having trouble to detect and AVOID a huge Airplane like that!

What the heck!

The Black Hawk was at fault.

It confirmed with the tower twice they had a visual and would take control. The tower checked them a second time as they approached and they confirmed again.

The Black Hawk was at 200ft which was the correct height along the river. When it got super close to the flight path the plane for no reason it quickly increased its altitude to 350ft where the collision took place. There is a Tower told the. Lack Hawk to pass behind the plane which the pilot clearly ignored.

When you see the flight data and the comms you could easily believe it was suicide.

You can have a world of the best outcomes from the best people, or you can have an inclusive diverse one, like the one we have currently, where given time every outcome across every business and industry will be a negative experience.

As I told one liberal all good till you or your family jump on a plane that stalls at altitude, or your heading into the operating theatre for cardiac surgery do you want the person in charge of saving your life to be the best possible candidate available no matter what race, or do you want someone who's there to make up their quota.

Fucking liberals sat in a hotel in LA last week listen to them blaming climate change for losing their houses, my sympathy soon retired. These people are fucking stupid. A timber heavy building code of houses stacked next to each other, with no water in your hydrants, and no off season area perimeter fuel reduction burns.

Welcome to the world of Woke.

Totally agree if that was an act of terror, the timing and outcome was precise. But you can't rule out total incompetence in todays world.

Such helicopters should never be allowed to use a flight path which takes them into or near the take off or landing trajectory of passenger airplanes. Completely insane to fly a black hawk in that spot.

It was a matter of time until it would go very badly wrong.

No kidding. I see they have suspended flying choppers near the airport now.

US army refuses to name female pilot killed in helicopter crash with passenger jet

The female pilot killed in the helicopter collision with a passenger jet in Washington DC will not be named, the US Army said.

The army made the a highly unusual decision at the request of the family not to release the name of one of the three soldiers killed when a military Black Hawk collided with a passenger jet on Wednesday evening.

The army identified two of the soldiers killed as Staff Sgt Ryan Austin O’Hara and Chief WO2 Andrew Loyd Eaves, but did not provide details about the third.

“At the request of the family, the name of the third soldier will not be released at this time,” an army statement said.

President Donald Trump has suggested, without evidence, that the deadly mid-air collision was the result of the Federal Aviation Administration’s efforts to hire a more diverse workforce.

Pete Hegseth, US defense secretary, while at the White House speaking about the crash on Thursday, also took aim at diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in the military and government.

On Friday Mr Trump said the helicopter was to blame for the fatal crash.

Washington’s Ronald Reagan airport banned helicopters from flying parts of two routes within its radius after the crash and the US president said the military aircraft was “flying too high” at the time of the collision.

CNN later reported that flight-tracking data showed the helicopter was flying 100ft above the maximum allowed altitude.

The Black Hawk helicopter was conducting a training flight for a female pilot who has not yet been identified.

QFT.  No way the military should be dicking around with their training exercises in such a busy airspace.  The whole DEI thing is just to deflect from the reckless practices of the military.

“At the request of the family, the name of the third soldier will not be released at this time,” an army statement said.

Pretty reasonable IMO.

They need to just leak her name otherwise the crazy conspiracy theories will come out. I’ve already heard one that it was a trans pilot.
