Do you think there was a political link? Some kind of an act of terror? I have no idea? Serious question

A military helicopter collided with an airplane near the DC airport. Of course there are political concerns.

Man I hope not. Can't rule it out though.

So sad. I agree with Trump. How could the copter pilot not see the plane with all its lights as it was flying towards it?

Crazy tragedy. I'll be interested to see if they determine how this happened. Seems so senseless.

also what role did the air traffic controller play (or not play). surely they would've seen this helicopter on radar

Once they release the name of the ATC pilot I'll give my opinion.

I'm hoping none of the identities are revealing and it's an honest accident.

Seems hard to believe such an accident would happen though.

I'll never understand the fascination people have with her.

And she's aged horribly. Which I'm fine with.

It is a shame she was not allowed to go forward with her skill set.

Interesting story on Fox News website.I’m too dumb to do links.
Anyway one of the figure skaters was banned from flying with the team because he wanted to bring his dog( emotional support dog-?) ,dog wasn’t allowed. Skater drove to Washington D.C.rather than leave his dog home.

Dang. Imagine a decision like that saves your life. I bet he was pissed off about having to drive.

Here is the story about the dog saving the skater's life.

link or not...let's try again: LINK

He was bashing everyone on twitter before the crash. Posted "GET me out of Kansas" and was pissed at airport staff, etc.

It was an accident, but we know that the internet can breed all sort of conspiratorial nonsense. Carry on…

I personally know someone who knew all 3 soldiers on board. Per his text..

“This was a routine flight and they make flights like this almost every single day. It’s literally their job.”

When I asked about the intent.

"The flight path does look strange, but it was 100% an accident. The only logical conclusion is that they didn't see the airplane."

Take it or leave it, but that's what I know as of now.
