A US military helicopter should be nowhere near a flightpath of a commercial jetliner right above an airport, especially not in the middle of the night. The US military will have A LOT of explaining to do.
Read my comment in general section, hopefully that will explain.
and especially not be making a beeline for an airliner which video clearly shows.

Reagan Airport and Joint Airbase Andrews are very close to each other. Waaay too close.
@@ENDURANCELANDexactly. It looks so intentional and the more we find out, the more it confirms that to me.

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏☝️
Reports have mentioned finding a few survivors at the scene. Whether they made it long enough to be treated, I don't know. They also mentioned calling off EMS during the later stages of the search and rescue which implies there were no more survivors to treat. May god bless their souls.
If only we had prayed for this not to happen
@@hottuna2006ugh that’s heartbreaking
@@Leopants4629 Well you tried
I pray for the victims family members that they may find little moments of peace that get longer and longer as they heal.
I've heard the audio -- the Blackhawk pilot DID acknowledge the traffic advisory from Reagan tower. He said he had the jet in sight, and would maintain visual separation (i.e. he didn't need radar advisories from the tower.) HOWEVER, the Blackhawk pilot probably mistakenly thought the controller was warning him about a different aircraft -- an inbound jet BEHIND the RJ. The pilot's attention may have been diverted by that other jet. Also, the Blackhawk was flying above its authorized altitude -- that's another contributing cause of the accident.
The plane taking off ? Is that what he saw instead of the plane landing ?
Agree, @flyo7789 That plane taking off was very distracting. Everything much too close together. I think Reagan needs to close, period. Of course, Congress will howl. They love that airport.
@@valerie11112exactly!!! Makes no sense.
Sounds like a plausible explanation, but still begs the question though, why is a military helicopter conducting a training flight over a busy civilian airport?
Commercial planes have clear callsigns, even on radar, that would be difficult to confuse with a different plane. So I find this highly unlikely.
Praying for everyone affected by this tragedy ! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for staying there and keeping us up to date on this tragic accident. Praying for all of the families of those who were lost during these flights
Here's what I think. The helicopter was probably looking at the aircraft that was taking off, not the one landing,
Valid theory
Possibly, still screams of either gross incompetence and negligence or a targeted event.
Exactly my thought. Human error.
Excellent point
DEI pilot?
This is such a failure on so many levels 😢
thats life everyone fails sometimes stop making this more dramatic then it needs to be,.....
@@brettbono9550 Pete Hegseth from Fox NEWS is responsible for the Black Hawk helicopter - Trump responsible for firing all air security a week ago!!
Exactly correct, it will most likely have 4-5 contributing factors when the final report is done. Pilot error, I suspect will be a leading factor, but what should be focused on is the procedures that put these aircraft into such close proximity at such a critical phase of landing.
Trump's DUI-hire Pete Heth is responsible for the helicopter crashing into the airliner
@@kittyclan1000 "what should be focused on is the procedures that put these aircraft into such close proximity at such a critical phase of landing."
Yes, that's called *DEI.*
Praying for all our friends and families affected here in Wichita Ks and all others affected by this tragedy.
So sorry for your loss 🙏❤
4:52 That audio has been edited to condense it for sharing online. If you download the actual audio from liveatc it is not “rapid fire” as he suggests. He was giving the aircraft plenty of time to respond. The collision happened about 20 seconds after the helo was instructed to pass behind the CRJ.
When I watched the video I saw the jet go down but the helicopter was NOT on top of it. I am confused. I played the video a few times and each time it appeared to be more and more clear. Could you please help to explain that?
I would think it imploded on impact they are saying it is upside down in the Potomac. I can't imagine they had time to react or they were seeing the out going aircraft not the incoming one.
@@soniastjules Another video I watched earlier said the plane was descending and came down on top of the Blackhawk. It's likely neither saw the other before impact. The helicopter was below and behind the line of sight, and the airplane was above and slightly ahead. How they were allowed to be that close together is the big question.
@@michaelblankenship548 I saw a comment in a chat that traffic controllers computers run on outdated chips. Perhaps technology glitch?
No, I'm a pilot. That is how it usually is.
Still doesn’t make ANY sense! Why is the Blackhawk even flying in that direction??
Seems to be planed obviously
its a very busy airspace and certain landing route is a very sharp turn
Um...Andrews Airforce Base/Joint Airbase. It's RIGHT THERE across the river from Reagan.
Yeah it seemed it ran into on purpose possibly was it hijack or something
It was a training exercise for Black Hawk units who operate in DC airspace. Air traffic control informed them to keep a distance from the plane. I suspect that they had misidentified which plane air traffic control informed them about.
This is just so tragic. I can’t imagine how the families are dealing with this right now. Expecting their loved ones to come home and tragedy like this happens. My heart goes out to those families and loved ones.
Very tragic... it's a cruel world out there. Think about this statistic also; about every 35 seconds somebody dies from heart disease in the USA due to being overweight, not exercising or some other factor (genetics, diabetes, ect ect).
It's so sad. And I just read that there were members of junior US figure skating team on board. Coming from Kansas. Of course it hasn't been confirmed yet.
SIMPLY AWFUL. CONDOLENCES 🙏🏼

Lol cool
Prayers 🙏🏻 how heartbreaking!!

Stop the gaslighting.
Regardless of who was on what frequency the military helicopter was operating VFR, requiring the operator to see and avoid other aircraft. Helicopters are required to give way to less maneuverable fixed wing aircraft.
The military leadership at Bolling have some explaining to do regarding their training methods.
Helicopter is not out of Bolling...it's out of Belvoir.
Doesn't change the essence of what he is saying, though, regardless of the facts. @carrieglover7167
The Helo was not operating full VFR ... the Helo pilot requested clearance to maintain visual separation meaning ATC could still refuse same ... the collision happened, from what I can hear in the full ATC Audio, before ATC could respond. Just my 2 cent's worth. I may be wrong, but this is how I heard it.
They should be training at less busy airports

Something is WRONG about this entire incident . Why would a U.S. military helicopter be flying a supposed training mission near a civilian airport. This is an unfortunate tragedy that should never have happened
Its routine.
The military base is on the other side of the river to the airport.
There’s a military base there ..
@@uwpride even more reason to have a natural caution when flying there, its not an excuse to be in the air coz theres a base near by, wouldnt you agree it would be imperative for them to give way to the airport? don tyou think they would be reminded of this daily? base or no base that pilot would have known, shuld have given more time to tower control given the fact HE IS ABOVE AN ACTIVE AIRPORT.... i couldve seen that plane a mile away...deliberate if you ask me.
Ask Pete Hegseth
Let the lies and cover-up begin. Isn't odd that all these News channels have the same headline that a Passenger plane collides into a Blackhawk Military Helicopter as if somehow our eyes are failing to see that that Helicopter flew straight into that aircraft!! This is an horrific avaition failure on the highest level!
My prayers to all the victims of this horrific suspicious incident. 🙏🏼
Good point... all of the major media groups that feed the local news are all owned by the same corporations.
You're an idiot
Yeah, the jet was landing, and the copter crossed his path and smashed into it. SO the correct phrase is that the copter collided with the jet. How can everyone get it backwards?
The military Copper is in The Flight Path Of The AirLiner " So Who is At Fault " Try An Cover That Up Now "
The news channels always do this right after a big incident like this. They misreport all sorts of news because they aren't waiting to verify their sources before reporting.
flying in the flight path of planes at night seems like a huge risk, did they deviate from procedure?
Seems impossible they were allowed there. Right? Mind blowing to me 🤯
No, initial indications are that they did not. Both aircraft were near exactly where they were supposed to be and operating within the instructions of ATC right up until about 5 seconds before the collision. The Passenger Aircraft had landing clearance and was on a stabilized, however, extremely demanding approach which involved a sort of "side-slip" maneuver, and the Helo was on an approved and cleared flight path from the Helo base. The last instruction from ATC was for the Helo to pass close behind the landing aircraft. In the 5 seconds that follow it would seem the Helo pilot lost sight of the civilian craft or never had the correct aircraft in sight. It is to be borne in mind that light pollution in that area is immense and an aircraft abeam from another will not see the other's blazing landing lights.
It was either a BIG oops or purposeful r on target. 😿
Incoming aircraft normally use runway 1. This flight was using runway 33. So the point of impact is a mile away from where the CRJ was expected to be, and behind the helo.
@@barkvarkie_fpv8623yes because there was an aircraft that was taking off you can see it to the right of the screen maybe that's what the helo was looking at??
Condolences,. heartbreak, for all families. ❤
What a tragedy 💔😭🙏🏼
The focus here is on the wrong end of the communications. Once you’re five seconds from impact things have gone wrong and probably little chance to correct. It’s how they got here that’s important
Fake President sent the copter and everyone (intelligent) know exactly what happened.
👍👍
Love and prayers from Canada 🙏
My heart goes out to all involved. I pray that has the investigation goes forward that safety errors will come to light and wise corrections can be made. I pray that hearts will be able to heal.
Dei hired military personnel
Amen🙏✝️😢❤️
Yep we need real proper investigation NO cover ups type crap and pray folx seek and accept receive Jesus bcuz of this.
So sad ... Unbelievable...
Negative comments do not help the people impacted by accidents like this. Please remember that NOT one person on the planet is perfect, accidents happen all the time no matter how advanced the technology is, human error is something unavoidable in the daily pressures of life. Please be mindful about mistakes you have made in the past and show some understanding and compassion. One Human, Not Hate Human. Thoughts of support from Australia.
Frequency shouldn't matter why would a helicopter cross a clear landing path for passenger jets?
“The airplane was on a perfect and routine line of approach to the airport. The helicopter was going straight at the airplane for an extended period of time. It is a CLEAR NIGHT, the lights on the plane were blazing, why didn’t the helicopter go up or down, or turn,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
that helicopter made a straight line for that plane, full speed, at night, in commercial air traffic.
Was it terrorism?
It is an approved flight path. The Helo was cleared to pass just behind the Passenger aircraft by ATC. What you see in the video is NOT what the pilots would have seen. For one thing, that passenger Aircraft's landing lights would not have been visible from the abeam position of the Helo. Good GAWD people are so quick to make assumptions about these things.
@@barkvarkie_fpv8623 yes,believing what we can actually see is just so gullible. Making up nonsense about angles making an airliner lights invisible, is just so reasonable.

To me, Helicopter pilot to blame, should have had easy visual with blinking plane landing lights!,
yes as they were flying under VFR and the pilot did state they had visual confirmation, but as one person posted, perhaps they were looking at another jet? That said ATC usually will say "confirm visual with CRJ7000 2000 feet at your 10 o clock." giving them a very close approximation where to look so they don't misidentify.
Why would the helicopter in a training mode at night to begin with?????
That helicopter pilot had to be blind not to see that bright as hell landing light on that plane!! Suspicious!!
It is to be borne in mind that light pollution in that area is immense and an aircraft abeam from another will not see the other's blazing landing lights.
Landing lights don't blink.
I'm planning a long road trip. You couldn't pay me to get on a plane right now.
don’t, take any transportation but that!
I'm taking a flight next week.
Planes and the airlines are way safer than taking cars. How many aircraft crashes happen every year in the US and how many car crashes happen every year? You also can't make the argument that plane crashes are always fatal. Crashes happen all the time but you just don't hear about them because they usually have a good outcome.
You are probably at least 100 times more likely to die on your way to the airport than taking the plane
Statistically you’re more likely to die on your “long road trip”. Enjoy and safe travels tho
Prayers out to the families. This was a shock to the entire nation.
It's human error. It's not a conspiracy.
Or is it?
Yeah right, your own people are against yall now...imagine how embarrassing that is if other countries find out
Yeah “ human error” 😅
humans dont make errors like that,
spiritual half monkys do,
conspiracy already allowed people to choose their own path, religion and career...conspiracy allows maffya to keep secrets and build schools...dont be groomed
@@rmj276 There were significant increase of near air-collisions reported especially the last few years. Unfortunately, I suspect the Black Hawk crew made the error and was avoiding the wrong plane and flight path. Whoever allowed the traffic to increase to such risky levels is to blame.
Show us the passenger list
Yes i want REAL NAMES OF BOTH AIRCRAFT....not some phoney baloney fake list. All i got so far is 3 soldiers no names given apparently NO vips on board the helo....plane apparently figure skaters and plane came from wichita ks. So ya hmmi want REAL names from BOTH aircraft. Cuz this was either a REAL BIG OOPS or a REAL BIG R IN TARGET PURPOSEFUL.
Some skaters are local to Wichita, I think, based off what our local news outlets are reporting. They were juvenile skaters and coaches and some family members. They said some people have shown up to our airport, awaiting answers about family members on the plane.
@@daleenross2977so sad. I am praying for them.
This is why the job of an Air Traffic Controller is like THE most stressful career on earth...
When I was young, I was on a school field trip to Stapleton Airport in Denver. The ATC's literally were watching radars with blocks stacked along both sides of the screen, and they literally passed a block from their station to the next guy as they were bringing planes into land and to take off. My friend later in my life was Jim King and his ATC crew, who were there when our school field trip was there. What an honor to meet them 45 years later.
And Trump just signed an executive order to freeze funding and reduce Air Traffic Controllers plus deregulating FAA safety standards.
Which is also why making them all DEI hires was a *terrible* idea.
Not the case at all, but Trump did gut the FAA so there is already a shortage of controllers
@@anotherlover6954ya know the first time this has happened has been AFTER the “dei” orders were revoked and a whole round of insane administration changes occurred.

You can see the Blackhawk flying directly from the left into the jet’s path. I cannot believe this was an accident. The jet’s landing lights made it eminently visible causing me to think that the collision may have been intentional.
Wearing NVGs greatly reduces peripheral vision while also making it even more changing to differentiate city lights from aircraft lights. Remember that when two aircraft are on a collision course they will appear stationary in the windshield, which will further challenge the pilots in differentiating between city and aircraft lights. Unless you’re a pilot you will not understand how challenging it can be to make out an aircraft with city lights as your backdrop. This accident highlights a systemic flaw in our airspace system which has been brewing for years, any aviation safety expert will tell you that a fatal mid air collision within the terminal area is inevitable and today it finally occurred. As I pilot I don’t see anything remotely suspicious about this accident.
Idiot post. Grow up and stop guessing and thinking you are right.
@@roccop3760 Then why was the pilot sent to such an area on a supposed training flight? I wouldnt want you as my pilot ever.
Just a few hours after the crash and already the conspiracy BS starts.
The landing lights appear very bright from where the camera is.
The landing lights point directly ahead.
The helicopter was approaching from the side, the landing lights would have possibly been visible but much much less bright.
The helicopter should have been able to see the aircraft nav lights flashing, but there are so many other lights around.
Suspect, miss identified the approaching aircraft and was looking at a different aircraft and missed the one he was on collision course with.
Not suspicious, just a major F up. with lots of contributing factors,
one night i was scrolling through my phone, feeling like i’d never figure out why some people just seem so magnetic. then i came across this book, Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and something about it caught my attention. reading it was like turning on a light in a dark room. it’s not about pretending to be someone you’re not; it’s about unlocking the energy you already have. trust me, this book is worth every page

Would be ADS-B or radar target on the heli. Someone said military doesn't need to have that. Aircraft TCAS would have seen the heli in the area while they were busy landing, and the co-pilot would have noticed.
🤔An accident?

Conspiracies DO exist, but not everything is one... If this was a training flight, maybe it wasn't intentional?
@brianperry2599 Not coming from a very quiet Kansas town. I can't imagine fowl play for a single person involved. Blancolirio yt aviation noted that this Reagan International Airport is an extremely busy airport. Prelim report I just read is the regional jet is a Bombardier CRJ700 60~70 passenger 2 engine. Delta flies many of these. Our fam was on one in 2015. It's 3 seats wide I recall. I havnt confirmed but a commentor shared only 2 survivors. A Black Hawk is very large. It looks like similar in length as this CRJ700 jet
Not a collision helicopter went direct to aeroplane

So tragic 💔🙏💔
This is unforgiveable. flying into a decent path of a commercial jet?
A lot of experts in the comments.
A lot of comments from poorly educated also.
Doesn't take an expert to know we've never seen anything like this before. It also doesn't take an expert to know that DEI has *drastically increased* such close calls in recent years. In case you missed it, *WE'VE BEEN CALLING THIS OUT FOR YEARS.*
@@anotherlover6954how is this a DEI issue?
So terrifying thinking you are about to land safely until boom life ends just like that.
“that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
Romans 10:
100% was the helicopters fault. Even looks like the helicopter was chasing the plane down. Theres more to this than we will know.
@johnmarkrobinson2924 chasing
Helicopter’s fault - yes. Chasing - no.
Absolutely tragic. Prayers for those who lost their lives and their families
Why cant they just talk normal with correct tone?
they would lose that "cool" factor
Too much miscommunication. What do you mean by "is"?
They know the lingo. You don't have to.
Those responsible for this disaster must be held accountable. In addition, serious compensation should be given to the relatives of those who died. 67 people lost their lives due to the malfunctions of the system. I am very, very sad, but also angry.
You must be a lawyer
My thoughts and prayers are with the families, and all those being affected by this tragedy.♥
Why on earth would anyone place flight training at a busy airport? Learn in a field for goodness sakes!!!
so.... they should always train at places where it is slow so that they never experience busy airspace?
