Was the crash a test of remote controlled military aircraft to practice taking down a commercial jet by AI? Are figure skaters a threat to national safety? How does this happen in America?

    "No survivors are expected after an American Airlines passenger flight collided midair with a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter late Wednesday night near Washington D.C.'s Reagan National Airport.

    The big picture: While the cause of the crash remains unknown, details are slowly emerging about the victims aboard the aircrafts.

    • American Eagle Flight No. 5342 had 64 people on board while the helicopter was carrying three soldiers.

    State of play: The flight was en route from Wichita, Kansas to Washington, D.C. when it collided with the helicopter.

    1. They did see it. I just listened to the ATC tapes and twice the helicopter pilot said he had a visual on the plane when asked. What this one pilot thinks happened online, and I will post the link, is that another jet was following that jet and he thinks the pilot of the helicopter was watching the wrong jet the entire time, and didn’t know the real jet was that close. Here is a great take on that accident.

      Sometime before 2019 some media personality, I don’t remember, voiced the new concern, “maybe I am lost but I start fearing the cosmopolitans”.

    3. The helicopter wasn’t being remote controlled. There are so many easier ways to take down a commercial jet. This doesn’t pass the common sense test.

    4. Think how hard it would be to deliberately–in an aircraft going a couple of hundred miles per hour and for even an experienced pilot–to intersect the path or another aircraft going a few hundred miles per hour.

      It seems like that would be even harder than for an incompetent and inexperienced pilot in a jumbo jet to intersect a motionless skyscraper. And do it perfectly two out of two times.

      But yet all kinds of people believe these things without question.
