[The US Army has refused to identify the co-pilot
of the helicopter in the DC air disaster
at the request of the family.
Pilot in charge Chief Warrant Office 2 Andrew Eaves
and crew chief Staff Sergeant Ryan O'Hara were
named on Friday as those on board.
The Black Hawk helicopter appeared to fly straight
into American Airlines Flight 5342 as in came in
to land at Reagan National Airport just before
9pm on Wednesday]

Strange, why would they want to keep it hidden especially as ATC has already been thrown under the bus

and we all know a lack of transparency just leads to an increase in speculation

The family requested it for now, I had read. I can understand it's probably horrible right now with how people are overreacting. Right now they are all victims.

Washington DC plane crash latest: 41 bodies recovered from river

Crimson Dynamo 01-02-2025 04:06 PM

Air traffic controller was allowed to leave early on night of crash
A supervisor allowed an air traffic controller to leave their shift early on the night of the crash at Reagan National Airport, our US partner network NBC News has confirmed.

The New York Times first reported this detail earlier today

This meant a single controller was handling traffic for planes and helicopters in the area.

A controller is typically dedicated to each - and while it is allowed for one to do both jobs, it isn't ideal.

The National Transportation Safety Board is also looking into whether the helicopter was flying too high.

The precise altitude won't be known until the aircraft's black box is retrieved.

Just heard on the Radio,
another Airport in the EU
had the same problem
an accident.

And when they named the Main worker
in the tower
He was murdered on his doorstep.

So in a way, I can see why the Female worker
is not named

arista 01-02-2025 09:26 PM

They are going to Bring the Plane
out of the water
to help get the rest of the dead bodies

All media

Female Pilot Named by
the Army


Capt
Rebbeca Lobach

Ammi 02-02-2025 11:36 AM

The female pilot killed in the Army helicopter collision with a passenger jet in Washington DC has been named as a former aide to President Joe Biden.

Captain Rebecca Lobach, 28, whose identity was kept secret, had served as an officer for almost six years and worked as a White House aide in the Biden administration.

She had been awarded the Army Commendation Medal, Army Achievement Medal, National Defense Service Medal and Army Service Ribbon.

The decision to release her name came “at the request of and in coordination with the family”, according to a statement issued by the US Army.

“We are devastated by the loss of our beloved Rebecca. She was a bright star in all our lives,” her family said in a statement released by the Army.

“Rebecca was a warrior and would not hesitate to defend her country in battle.”
