So no idea of really how the crash happened, don’t have black boxes yet. But somehow knows it was dei. Right.
He doesn’t need evidence he has “common sense”
Actual quote from the press conference
….
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?
Wouldn’t that be TCAS?
You right. Helicopters aren’t terrain. My bad
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.
Black box is woke dei hire.
wouldn’t have happened if white box.
Of course. Had it been a white box, it would have avoided this crash, we all know that!
/s
Looks more like rainbow colored to me.
You missed an even better joke with white hawk helicopter.
New EO just dropped. We’re calling them white boxes and painting them to prevent future tragedy.
This is even funnier because black boxes are bright orange
Are we sure Trump isn’t a black box in disguise? 🤔
Painting them white would be a typical Trump ineffectual quick-fix gesture.
Grey is the new aryan white:
Black Box in a black hawk. I mean come on
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.It’s pilot error or deviation. You have the CRJ in sight. You are responsible for maintaining visual separation. Full stop. Instrument failure does not apply to your eyes.
Due to his barren mental landscape, he can only rant about two or three things in a given month.
…or understaffed air traffic control where controllers have to do 2 jobs at once. Then you have a helicopter pilot who was not following ATC instructions.
Yeah, refuting an argument by saying “other stuff is at fault” is the work of a true well educated and informed intellectual.
For those keeping score, in his journey to fuhrer, you can mark this spot on your “classification of people Trump will put in camps” bingo card.
He’s going to use this as an excuse to repeal the Americans with Disabilities Act. I’m calling it.
it’s in project 2025
So many rascal driving MAGAots are about to have their face eaten.
Sucks it will affect decent folks.
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.”
Looks like we’re in the “degenerate” stage of fascism now.
So he actually blames himself. Fair enough
Its like he goes out of his way to project.
Have you ever noticed how absolutely fixated this guy is on assigning people mental issues?
I am officially upgrading that from 🤔 to Ominous.
That might indicate that he recently was informed that he has dementia and that it’s incurable.
Or maybe he wants all his political opponents and critics declared insane so he can have them tortured with outdated treatments like lobotomies and endless rounds of ECT.
He’s talking about himself, isn’t Trump?
Blaming yourself won’t help the families, Don.
Has anybody checked to see if the spray tan he uses is known to cause brain damage?
So he blames himself? Refreshing change of pace there.
There is a good chance this was caused in large part by Trump and his enshitification efforts. Right now the entire federal workforce is demoralized by various actions of Traitorapist Trump, degrading the quality of government across all levels. Air traffic controllers are part of the federal workforce. They were also short staffed, which in itself was likely cause by the poor morale. Blaming the hiring of minorities makes no sense given that a big part of the problem was not enough staff.
Trump knows this and knows that other people will make that connection too, and so him blaming this on DEI was his way of deflect the blame away from his rapid enshitification of government.
The fucknut Orange Nero described himself.
Yes, and he is the one at fault.
Yup that is how this presidency will be explained. America had the potential to be the greatest country in the world, but it just always remains out of reach, and that fucker you have in charge will irreparable do even more damage.
I feel sorry for what you (not you in particular) voted for (or what was stolen by the tech bros).
Hope you make it through this.
Nepotism(hiring unqualified friends and family) is far more rampant and way more destructive than DEI policies ever could be. DEI policies may help unqualified people gain low level positions, but with nepotism it’s usually high level positions.
