we agree it was pilot error and Trump wasn't the reason this happened.

Yup. Just like I said, you *suspect*.

Racial quotas?

Abolished programs and rejected people because of their race?

Prove there were self proclaimed racial quotas.
Prove anything you just said. We're waiting.

Since you're demanding proof on all these different subjects, you need to start supplying proof yourself.

Links?

thank you valued poster

Makes no difference how many agree on any guesses you make.
It's still nothing more than a guess.

Did you notice that?

Nothing more than a guess.

I know there hasn't been a crash in 16 years.

Proof about the black hawk story?

It was pilot/ATC error nothing mechanical caused the crash.
I've NEVER heard of a midair collision being a mechanical issue. ATC should have e NEVER authorized the Blackhawk to navigate with visual avoidance.
I don't understand how they ever authorized the conflict of any aircraft crossing the flight path of final approach...that's insane...the 100ft separation is something I've never heard of...that's a recipe for the disaster THAT HAPPENED!!
1000 foot minimum vertically separation is mandated by the FAA!!
All this I've stated is no guess.

There was almost certainly pilot error involved but the NTSB will find something wrong with ATC also because they always do. It’s their job to spread the blame around.
The correct term is “visual separation” and it’s used thousands of times a day every day. The minimum separation between a VFR aircraft and an IFR aircraft in a terminal control area (TCA) is 500 feet. There is no specific number of feet for visual separation. The Black Hawk was supposed to pass behind the CRJ thus applying the rules of separation.

Yes. We both *suspect* such.

As you can tell Ed, there are those that are only gonna stick with hearsay. *I* also believe other factors played into this event. And *I* can sit and wait till the appropriate authorities make their findings known and not stir the pot to throw off blame from others.

There was no way that the Blackhawk could have 500 separation they weren't high enough off the ground!!
Obviously they didn't have a visual because the crash would never have happened. Visual separation at night is considered very risky and seldom granted because of night vision perception and heavy traffic.

Do you know of any instance where any aircraft is going to past directly in the flight path of final approach at any airport??
It's not allowed

[EdBeaver]

I know all the rules. I don’t know if the Black Hawk was on the proper assigned course but I do know that they should have seen the CRJ if they were looking out the window. There’s a great chance that they had their “heads in cockpit” and not looking out the windows. If you’re passing behind another aircraft you can be at the same altitude. I agree that the routes the helicopters use are too close to the airport.

[bb1961]

What I said was no aircraft is allowed to cross in the flight path even behind the final approach at any airport why this airport??
