Did you see that map. What you didn’t see in the video was the helicopter was traveling along the water way then crossed over land to travel along another water way traveling toward the passenger plane’s landing path then appeared to be crossing again near impact. The ATC contrary to initial comments by media which can say anything just to say something taking off on another part of the air field was actually already in flight and they had even more time to warn the helicopter. Initially they said there was no response from the helicopter then the next day they said there was but didn’t change course. They claimed the plane was at a altitude of 350 feet but on this map the helicopter was not at the same altitude but flying lower.
I never liked AA and surprised they could find good pilots.They had DEI before there was DEI and the greedy company causes nothing but a shit show for the passengers including to who they hire in the air for stewardess. My daughter in law who flys frequently told me they’re the worst and my grandson still a kid told her he won’t fly AA again. This was a tragic accident but not you or I are experts in the field nor have privy information to make sense of it other than common sense and people who should have both hopefully can figure it out. Not our YOB amigo. It just doesn’t make sense. I heard the helicopter pilots the other day protocol was stay low at 200 Ft. Now DC wants more air traffic for the economy, ” hey I thought their economy great under Biden” when there’s already aircraft flying on top of each other? If these guys have the computer skills they do see something like these other planes they should send the info out.
