That's what I'm wondering. Could it be someone in the admin?

No. His press secretary said she just spoke to him about the crash

Kaitlin Collins said the plane hit a Blackhawk. Thought it was a DC chopper?

No they corrected that.

Could some people have survived a fall into the river? It doesn’t seem impossible. Hopefully there are at least a few.
From the radar track I just saw, the jet was doing about 120 knots and the helo I’m not sure, both were at 300 ft.

From the fireball and immediate crash into the river, I highly doubt there are any survivors on either aircraft.

I don't. I just think that response is pretty dramatic all things considered. Maybe it's because it's DC and a military helicopter, it's just odd.

Interesting. I rarely see Military aircraft in Vegas except when I am by Nellis.
