I think her response is fine. NTSB performs research to determine a probable cause and contributing factors. Trump made his statement and she informs the press that they also make statements before all of the information is known. DEI was practiced at the FAA. Whether DEI is a cause or factor in this accident is currently unknown.
Recruiting for ATCs, like recruiting for the military, must be, at this point (after four years of Biden and crew meddling and interfering for the worse) absolutely tanking. The best candidates are probably well aware of the problem and have long since been seeking employment elsewhere.
There’s not much she can say at this point. I don’t have a problem with her statement.
How many times did Trump say something that was quoted by press as “without evidence” and later proved true?
Professional answer and what I’d expect.
But if you were paying attention to other FR posts since last night...
...it looks like DJT was right yet again.
The army helicopter ran into the jet airliner the helicopter pilot had acknowledged he had in sight.
The airliner was on a short final approach with its pilots concentrating on the last seconds of the approach which are critical. The airliner had its landing gear and flaps down which greatly limited the options of its pilots.
The helicopter could have stopped its forward progress, hovered or immediately altered course. It was NOT in a critical flight mode as was the airliner.
The airliner on its final approach had the right of way by long-standing rules of flight.
Trump’s job is to lead America. Homedy’s job is to play Sherlock Holmes, keep her mouth shut and collect data.
Yes there is...
The atc was trying to communicate with the helo...
No response.
It does not matter if you got 30 of the brightest in the tower.
If you do not get a response to directions given tragedy will soon follow.
Don’t fall for the narrative.
I do not believe the current reports about a transexual on the helicopter. I think that’s been debunked. I know that Trump knows a lot more about this than any of us or the press. I believe his comments are from a position of knowledge, not speculation, as we have seen many times before.
She’s a trainwreck and now she’s toast.
The media tried to push her into an answer supporting their view, she did the right thing, stayed neutral in her lane and told everyone to wait for the investigation to turn up facts.
BTTT
I see the Murdock slime show is still hard at work using their outlets to spread lies
1st they attack President Trump for “causing the crash” when he responses they drop the fact he is responding to their scumbag actions to pretend he “jumped the gun”
Just shameless lying
Why do folks jump to conclusions? Uhh:
1) almost all conspiracy theories of last ten years have been proven right — despite gov’mt denials
2) gov’mt always covers up the cause once it is realized that gov’mt was a contributor
Basically, WE DON’T TRUST YOU ANYMORE!! So, shut up and do your job and quit whining about the issue that YOU have contributed to.
