ATC doesn't fly, it was VFR crews' responsibility to ensure separation. Being well above the ceiling doesn't help.
Possible but it is man vs woman. Last 20 secs of vid doesn't show any movement.
Yes they did, but this wasn’t that model.
“My question still goes unanswered: what is the military doing flying training exercises in the busiest air corridor in North America?”
And doing it with some of their navigation equipment turned off.
“She did not turn left.” - that’s the problem
She had somewhere between 450 and 500 hours total stick time. The question is did she stay current while working at the WH, which appears to be a no..
“The only reason people tune into mainstream TV/radio anymore is for sports and local news. No one subscribes to a newspaper anymore.”
We subscribe. Only for obits, local news and such. The national news is all AP propaganda. And I suspect that’s why this little rag went from a 1/2” thick large paper daily to a few pages a with pages a fraction of the size it used to be. I’d say the paper is about 5% of what it was 30 years ago.
Whenever I do look at this paper’s AP articles, my blood boils at how obviously biased their stories are. Often outright lies.
I used to get the Sunday edition of the Manchester Union Leader newspaper. At one point just the coupons paid for the subscription. I dropped it about ten years ago.
I dropped cable TV two years ago.
IF Starlink continues to come down in price I will drop my Xfinity internet cable too.
Verizon cell phone is also on the chopping block.
And what navigation systems were turned off? It wasn't instrument flight it was night (a nice night) VFR.
