Early reports of 60 onboard plane from Kansas.
Yikes... did the helicopter not have ATC?
Really terrible, river is much colder than usual since we've been in a cold streak. Landing towards the northwest on the shorter runway 33. Hopefully there are some survivors - it would have been very close to the ground but at nighttime not sure how you find 60 people in the water. I suspect too low to the ground for TCAS to engage and unclear if a chopper would even have TCAS.
It collided with a UH60... that's an Army helicopter.. yikes
That really sucks
Google says H-60s do have TCAS but being <15 seconds from touching down I think that would be too low for traffic advisory from TCAS.
Jesus. Terrible.
Supposedly the helicopter had a priority person on board... could be a member of the cabinet or senator etc....
Deep state theories start….now.
Yup... and if you see the video... the copter belines for the plane... crazy they didn't see each other
It's okay to politicize things again
Latest is 3 soldiers on the Blackhawk and no high value targets
Trump’s decision was a bad decision for the country in a multitude of ways.
It’s not related to what happened today.
I was in the police chopper as an observer east of LAX over the 710 freeway. We were at the authorized altitude and there was a low overcast. I look up to the right and a jet liner comes out of the overcast and went just over us. I could see rivets plain as day. A very unpleasant experience. The jet wasn't supposed be below the approach attitude but the pilot decided to make a visual approach and damn near killed everybody.
