I think it's because there's not much you can say about anything plane crash that's negative. It's not like we're talking about a train wreck of a country. _oh wait_

The passenger plane was cleared for landing, and was where it should have been. Why did the black hawk fly straight into the plane? Why is the focus on the passenger plane being the cause? Misrepresentation of the facts is typical for sky news.
There are now reports that the military helicopter was flying dark along the river. So, no lights, no radio communication and no beacons or other electronic identification to other aircraft. Prayers , for their families and for all of the first responders and Nursing and medical staff involved.
Okay, so the chopper out of Ft. Belvoir (PAT 25) was on a routine training flight, using airspace commonly shared with planes. Usually, there is significant seperation. Two minutes prior to the collision, the AA plane (CRJ7) was heading toward runway 1 to land. Air traffic control (ATC) communicated to CRJ7 to manuever a sidestep and instead land on runway 33. This alters the distance significantly because to make that move it adds a curve to the right, then a curve to left. The sidestep is a difference of roughly 1km, which took CRJ7 directly into the path of PAT 25 at between 300-400ft above the Potomac. PAT 25 was only warned to maintain visual distance roughly 30 sec before their paths intersected. The airliner CRJ7's TCAS, which is their traffic collision warning system, is useless below 1000ft. It wouldn't have alerted the crew of CRJ7 to evade. In those conditions, with almost no relative distance for the helo PAT 25 at night, with the speed of CRJ7, with motion parallax in play looking upward, the helo pilots can't know that plane approach is THAT close. PAT 25's final 3-8 sec of flight shows a slight right turn directional change south toward the jet's path, but not because it was trying to hit it, but because of the belief they're not near it and should be flying behind it once it clears them, if they even saw it at all. I think this accident was not the fault of the military, nor American Airlines, but air traffic control at Reagan. That late runway change was significant, but the resulting poor communication between both aircraft was so inadequate. Why? CRJ7 could not hear PAT 25's comms w/ATC, and PAT 25 couldn't hear ATC's comms w/CRJ7. Different channels. I don't think the helo had any clue that airliner was moved directly into the helo's path by 1km with 2 min to go before landing. Visually, PAT 25 would've been looking toward runway 1's normal path, not 33's path, which they intersected and thus hit the airliner.
Very sad for all concerned. RIP all. The Ranger pilot confirmed the traffic was in sight. He was ordered to keep own separation and pass behind the aircraft on final. Seconds later the collision occurred.
There were guys doing research on search and rescue using UAV swarms for their thesis and PHD's when I was at uni 15 years ago... seems that knowledge has gone nowhere. Putting munitions on them on the hand i see has been flourishing.
The water is slightly above zero C. The air is warmer, but there's the apparent explosion before both aircraft fell. Not good at all. It's dark, there's videos of both aircraft submerged, the copter inverted, the passenger jet at least partially submerged. Does not look hopeful.
Helo appeared to be on a level trajectory until four seconds before impact when it started descending directly into the descending airplane! Much sympathy to the victims.
Prayers and thoughts with the victims and famlies, but how in gods name does a military helicopter obtain clearence to fly through no doubt a designated civilan flight path , beggars belief
Someone's in trouble for leaving the comments on, this is really sad, can't remember when plane travel was so unsafe, they want people not flying around and in our 15 minute cities.
Why no boats with lights? There should be many. No one could survive more than probably 10 minutes in that freezing water. Maybe alot less. I hope everyone is safe. It didn't look good when the collision happened.
@@jayhorton4088 I'm sorry, my comment was pretty silly and irresponsible in its own right. I didn't mean to single you out individually.

So rescue efforts don’t include thermal imaging or even the “Night Sun” spotlight used in police chases? The most obvious thing about this that doesn’t pass the smell test is…. I can comment about my concerns 🤷♂️🚩
Great they turned the comments on now I will watch not that my comments are so important but everybody should be able to have an opinion on something that's a serious issue or whatever now that I get to comment I guess I will I hope everyone's okay
I bet the comments are on so anyone who's there if they comment they can pull it to add into the next video as we know media don't fact check so they will run with anyone saying anything ❤
Trumps new transit dept...and dont pretend he wouldnt blame biden for the exact same...gross but sadly true, now he's gonna make it about himself somehow ugh...

It’s easy. The helo violated Regan approach airspace . It’s a tight corridor for separation of air space
Imagine people on grounded flights waiting to take off. That definitely changes some things
Here to leave my mark in the 9 News comment section, for the first time in years!
Sounds dodgy. Everything in the usa is dodgy lately
Trumpet ordered FAA cutbacks . Such sad news😢
Lately? Trump has been putting in the work mind you, accidents do happen, we more information to confirm it's dodgy.
On a video you see the helicopter fly into the side of the plane.
Horrific
They need to search for people in the water using thermal drones
There were guys doing research on search and rescue using UAV swarms for their thesis and PHD's when I was at uni 15 years ago... seems that knowledge has gone nowhere. Putting munitions on them on the hand i see has been flourishing.
What is the time frame for them to be effective of people start freezing ? Or is my question silly
Plane crash in Washington? Who was on the plane?
Exactly
Dangerous American patriots
Looks like the helicopter flew straight into the plane, from the footage shown 😮😮
The airplane has tail lights. How could the helicopter pilot miss seeing them?
My thoughts as well…
I think other way around, looks like the plane slammed into the helicopter.
I think the helicopter is the one that slammed in the plane bcuz it's the smaller object from the video, maybe he's not well experienced pilot
How is this possible ? Something very fishy
The water is slightly above zero C. The air is warmer, but there's the apparent explosion before both aircraft fell. Not good at all. It's dark, there's videos of both aircraft submerged, the copter inverted, the passenger jet at least partially submerged. Does not look hopeful.
Which important person that just discovered the cure for a disease is on that plane?
Good question there, it will be interesting to know the names of passengers
Could there be any whistleblowers hmmm??
@@PaulTaka123 Well neither Mr. Prigozhin nor Mr Navalny were among them but perhaps some members of previous local administrations may have been?
Very sad accident
Other way around - Blackhawk decided to crash into the plane
Terrifying- I hope everyone is ok. ❤
Helo appeared to be on a level trajectory until four seconds before impact when it started descending directly into the descending airplane! Much sympathy to the victims.
Wish everybody safe
4 people pulled out alive.
I can see in the videos that the helicopter is the one that crashed on the plane, our prayers for the people on board 🙏
Hopefully all are okay
Should pray for their lost souls... mid-air fireball into ice cold river isn't something you walk away from alive.
@@BallBusta Yes , that is true. Hopefully all souls on board aren't lost. Praying for them
Sorry mate. I don’t think they are. Pray for them though.
@ okay, will do
Doesn't look it given footage of the mid air collision
How many people on board the helicopter FFS? Why are we only worried about the people on the plane?
Sophie Walsh always sounds like she is holding back a sneeze. Distracting.
dont worry, trumps got RFK jr or Linda McMahon on it ffs smdh
The military helicopter had it's ADSB turned off! FFS how stupid can you be! Poor people
The air traffic controller will a rough time explaining this incident.

Where's the closest photos then?
64 people on plane
Maybe checking who believes media these days?
I can’t work out how the helicopter pilot didn’t see the plane. It was absolutely lit up. Terribly sad and scary that this can happen.
