Investigators are going to have to look at every possible reason a military Black Hawk Helicopter could crash into an American Airlines passenger jet landing at Reagan Airport in D.C.
The calls from air traffic controllers for the helicopter to “return to base” raise serious concerns over what may have caused this crash.
We even pulled the altitude and flight tracking data that revealed sharp zig-zags and a sudden drop in altitude moments before the crash. Here are the possible reasons behind the disaster: Mechanical Failure
Air Traffic Control Failure
Human Error
Nefarious Action
Pilot Suicide
Computer Hack
....

I’ll put my money on pilot suicide and homicide.
This has all of the markings of a woke Rainbow Warrior killing him/her/itself and others in protest of the end of trannies in the U.S. military.
The idiot ordering night vision training near a busy airport needs to be court martialed and busted down to private.

There were ONLY THREE on the helicopter when they should have had FOUR!
REALLY??? The helo ran straight to the plane!
A plane traveling three hundred miles an hour.
“A plane traveling three hundred miles an hour.”
If it was landing, wouldn’t it have been going a wee bit slower than that?
Whatever. You go ahead believing in your baseless conspiracy theory.
The computer jet on approach was flying around 150 knots.
Human error.
Helo pilots confirmed visual on a different aircraft and never even saw the aircraft they collided with.
I realize this isn't satisfactory to the conspiracy nutcases inhabiting these threads but this is my guess.
Not a pilot but I do have 21+ years in Naval Aviation maintenance and have been privy to more than a few Class A mishap reports.
That proves the helicopter pilot deliberately collided with the plane, then.
You win.
“I’ll put my money on pilot suicide and homicide. This has all of the markings of a woke Rainbow Warrior killing him/her/itself and others in protest of the end of trannies in the U.S. military.”
Go into a quality flight simulator and see if you can deliberately fly a helicopter perpendicularly into a jet on approach. Don’t forget to let the jet adjust its heading in the process. Essentially impossible.
Dumb. According to a comment on GP, the “return to base” instruction to another helicopter occurred AFTER the collision. Typical GP.
I get almost physically sick when I read about this disaster.
Please stop hitting the post button.
It coulda been a seizure of some kind.
This guy doesn’t know what he is talking about. The helicopter HAD TO drop altitude because the maximum altitude allowed for helicopters in the area of the crash was 300ft. Now they were still 100ft higher than they should have been (400ft). Had they been at 300ft like they were supposed to be.... no collision.
