Could some of you stop speaking in abbreviations and military lingo please.

Fox showing a longer video from Kennedy center. Maybe I’m just seeing stuff but that helicopter didn’t look like it was maintaining altitude prior to the crash.

My buddy is a dc firefighter. Says there’s a massive response. Obviously. He’s not working today and is not being called in as of now.

I'm surprised some of those buildings are labeled on the map. You'd think they wouldn't want it to be public knowledge.

ATC recording
LiveATC.net captured it. Starts around the 16:45 mark…. you hear the controller ask Pat25 if they have the CRJ insight, unfortunately you can’t hear the response because the Blackhawk is probably on a UHF frequency, but given the controller responds “Pass behind the CRJ” I would guess the Blackhawk confirmed they did have them insight. At 17:45 you hear alarms in the background and an “ooohhh” then someone says “tower did you see that”. You can hear the intensity in his voice change from there.
Terrible situation…..but it sounds like the Blackhawk messed up.

Makes you wonder who was on the blackhawk

The Class B extends a ways out form DCA for 20 miles surface to 10k and also surrounds Andrews AFB. I'm not familiar with DCA's ops but I'd be surprised if ATC wasn't normally in communication with those aircraft. Maybe the helo violated airspace, we don't know yet.

The helicopter is in the air for quite some time approaching from the screen left in the clip being shown on Fox news.

How does the helicopter not see the jet on approach?

No way!

FYI, a friend just texted me after listening to the audio & said the helicopter was instructed to pass behind the CRJ.
I am on my way home & haven’t listened yet. TIFWIW.

Either a serious screw up or done on purpose. That helicopter is in the air way too long. And if you notice, it appears that it comes up to the plane before impact

The point of that post was more just to point out they aren’t pulling in off duty personnel.

A military VIP transport helicopter?

Almost looks intentional. Very interested to find out who the pilot was.
