The plane is coming in on approach there's nothing the plane can do. The helicopter can stop, can go up and down, can back up in mid-air a plane can't. That helicopter should have yielded to the plane

Those who know! 👀 A Blackhawk is equipped with night vision, infrared, sensors & collision warnings. They are made to fight in all conditions & can maneuver instantly. Let that sink in! 🙏

I was on a flight from, fort lauderdale to Michigan looking out the window, I noticed another flight. You just crossed in front of us straight, and our pathway couldn't have been more than a 150 yd away. The plane was right in our same path and just went straight across. I was like, wow, do these air traffic controllers know anything to let people know what's going on? !! but then again, if it was a Ben our time, it's our time, you can't stop it. But that stuff can be preventable if you notify the air pilots to say, hey, you're in each other's fair space. this is a true story.

I’m still wondering WHO is standing on the shore in winter to just “randomly” capture this just as it happens….w/ no shock or yelling

so what you're saying is, a Blackhawk with state of the art radar and night vision and whatever else, couldn't see an airline jet with all the lights on it????

I hope and pray all passengers didn’t suffer pain, were unaware, and perished immediately, while the hand of God welcomed them into heaven. 💔🙏🏻

My car has a warning alert system if I get to close to a car. You are telling me a Black hawk that cost from 5-11 million dollars has no advance warning system for collision.

What I don’t understand is that a Blackhawk helicopter can evade missiles while in action yet couldn’t move out of the way after seeing the plane at a distance?

the question is why on earth is a helicopter flying near a planes flight path so close to a runway doesnt make sense i think we will never know the real story behind this...

It looks like the black Hawk was just hovering there just to be in the planes path. Definitely looks like it was deliberate.

You can't tell me the Plane couldn't see the black Hawk either!

This was intentional, Blackhawk is built for combats equipped with night vision, infrared and collision sensors… no how they couldn’t have seen or detected the aircraft coming

My drone warns me when there’s manned aircraft flying nearby. It even tells me their distance and height. Both the plane and helicopter have the same feature. This was avoidable

Blackhawk has no excuse. if the plane was cleared on final there is no excuse

call sign for help was P.A.T. 25. priority air transport. the 25 is designation for mid grade explosive cargo.

My 2022 Durango literally warns me with beeps, flashing lights, & brakes on its own when approaching another car to fast.. But a BH don't have warning to prevent this🤔 Not buying it.

So what they’re trying to tell us is, the Blackhawk couldn’t swerve out of the way…you know like they do in war? this was all prophesies and we all know it was deliberate.
