    Report is that one ATC was doing the work that’s supposed to be done by two, due to staffing shortages.

    He doesn’t actually care who or what is responsible as long as he can tell people it isn’t him.

    If he had half a brain he would just say investigations are ongoing whenever asked.

      No because the plan is to blame literally everything that goes wrong on minorities.

      Never give up a good or even bad opportunity to try and throw someone in front of a bus. An opportunity not seized is a opportunity missed.

      Nostradamus [Belle] two days ago:

      If they keep the details quiet [of the recent closed-door meeting], you’ll be able to tell what they’re going after [in the budget] by listening to their rhetoric”.

      They’ll start scapegoating a demographic, to try and prime the [voter] base to accept their cuts.

      (e.g.) “If they start talking about able-bodied people, it’s Medicaid.

    So no idea of really how the crash happened, don’t have black boxes yet. But somehow knows it was dei. Right.

      ….

      PAT25(?) announced that they have a visual on the CRJ. ATC instructed them to maintain visual separation and then proceed behind the CRJ. They didn’t. No maydays, no panpans.

      It’s pilot deviation or pilot error.

      What would you be interested in with the black box? If the TAWS warned the CRJ pilots?

        The ATC queries them multiple times if they have visual on the CRJ and they repeatedly respond in the affirmative.

        also the published helicopter corridor has them maintain a ceiling of 200 feet, they were well above 350 at the time of the collision.

        It’s either pilot negligence or instrument failure.

        also TCAS is inactive below 800900 feet.

          New EO just dropped. We’re calling them white boxes and painting them to prevent future tragedy.

        TCAS doesn’t give resolution advisories (alerts that say to climb or descend to avoid traffic) below 1000’. It does have a warning noise still, but from my understanding it’s common for it to go off on approach due to all the other aircraft around and on the ground at the airport, so it may have been ignored.
