This isn’t exactly breaking news. It was a plane with 60+ and a helicopter. Surviving is going to be damn near impossible

I don't see how it's possible.
I get a collision alert off the AIS in my radio on my damned bay boat if I get on a collision course with a ship and I can set it up to go off wayyyyyyyyy in advance. No way a damn commercial jet and a helicopter don't have something like that.

I will give Tigerdroppings credit. I have been watching FOX and occasionally switching to CNN. The details and video were posted on here long before the TV had it.

Trumps press secretary just said it was a military helicopter that hit the plane.

Where are my DMV people at? Do I need to get on scene to report directly?

that was a big helicopter that flew in the landing path of the CJ. Helicopter engulfed and plane went straight down in a couple pieces based on that video

First major crash since 2009. Wow.
It’s early but appears ATC fricked up bad here.

Not the first time a major news event was on the OT before the news picked it up.

I assume air traffic rules are similar to maritime navigation rules? The less maneverable vessel has the the right of way?
That is correct. This is a bizarre scenario that absolutely should have never happened.

What in the actual frick… how does a military copter enter the airspace of approaching aircraft.

This is super low priority but what are the odds my flight is canceled tomorrow?
Go to travel board, started a thread so I/others can try and help you there. Nothing is landing at DCA so I'd guess chances of cancellation out of DCA are high

FAA saying it was a Blackhawk
Posted on 1/29/25 at 8:55 pm to Lsut81
