No Nicky
Diversity Workers are OK in some Jobs
Trump said that.

But Not this

He is referring to Disabled people workers
that are not good enough mentally
for this type of job.
Common Sense.

Because for it to be an accident it just has to be a freak "wrong place wrong time" occurrence... for it to be deliberate, the helicopter pilot would have had to precisely gauge hitting the plane, at a 90 degree angle, when the plane is moving at 150mph+, and the helicopter's TOP speed is no more than 150mph.

If that helicopter pilot to have pulled that off on purpose - first time, one shot at it... it's just highly unlikely.

If it had been a head on collision maybe but it was at an angle from the side.

It's also not the first Helicopter accident involving the military. They do tend to go down more than they should. I am leaning towards incompetence. They may have technology on board they were relying on (we'll never hear about it) and thought that would be enough to keep out of the way.

Yes
many are.

Helicopters are inherently unsafe. They require huge amounts of maintenance to keep them flying. It's perfectly possible that it had an equipment failure and thats what led to the disaster

No survivors. This is heartbreaking :sad:

Another Press gathering. all media

For a Team Plane Crash Crew NTSB

They say they will check everything

I'm gutted, I was going to post the same this afternoon, bit thought it would have just sounded trollish. Shame, I could have just had the last laugh after an afternoon of pure delight..:blush:

The bloke is unhinged

Listening to the air traffic controller, he sounded very calm and assured...

It is completely inappropriate to say that it was anyones fault at this stage

I do one of my every once in a while logins to X and this is at the top of my feed:

Sigh.

A reporter asking trump if he is going to visit the site of the crash and his response being bemused “you want me to go swimming?”

He’s just the best :laugh:

They’re still dragging bodies from the water

No. He's actually calling out the racism.

He's talking about people being hired not by their competence, but by their identity (which in many cases is the definition of racism)

It is True
Obama did Hire DEI staff

This is incompetence.

Night before DC crash, another airliner nearly collided with a helicopter: report

Emergency response units search the crash site of the American Airlines plane on the Potomac River after the plane crashed last night on approach to Reagan National Airport on January 30, 2025 in Arlington, Virginia.

The night before American Eagle Flight 5342 collided with an Army Black Hawk helicopter near Reagan National Airport on Wednesday night, a jet that tried to land at the same airport had to circle around and make another approach after a helicopter approached its flight path, according to reports.

The Washington Post reported that an audio recording from air traffic control captured the encounter, and ultimately, Republic Airways Flight 4514 landed safely, flight tracking software shows.

The Embraer E-175 was cleared to land at the airport’s Runway 19 and advised about a helicopter in its vicinity. It executed a go-around maneuver after its automated collision avoidance system ordered what's known as a ‘resolution advisory’ to avoid nearby traffic.

That put the aircraft out of proper alignment for landing, but was able to land safely several minutes later, The Associated Press reported.

The military helicopter was advised of the plane, which was flying around flew roughly 1,000 feet above the helicopter, according to flight tracking sites cited by the AP.

As to Wednesday’s crash, officials said they believe there are no survivors.

Responders continue to sort through the wreckage in search of remains. In total, there were 67 people on board the helicopter and airliner, combined.
