    1. I suspect the two pilots never saw each other. From the helicopter, all the action is to the right, with the CRJ initially to the left and approaching but looking to pass by. The CRJ crew is looking forward at a higher level than the relatively low and slow helicopter, then concentrating on a descending turn at low altitude, and looking at the runway. So they’re banked to the left in the turn and have no sightline up the river. CRJ straightens out and the helicopter is close, a little below sightline, and to the right, opposite side from the pilot in the plane. Reminds me of the B-17 collision last year, where neither pilot saw the other.
