@cbsnews: The crew of the Black Hawk helicopter that collided in midair with an American Airlines jet over Washington D.C. might not have heard instructions from an air traffic controller to pass behind the plane, the NTSB revealed. National Transportation Safety Board Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy said a recording from the helicopter cockpit suggests the crew may have missed the key instruction just before the collision. #ntsb #blackhawk #americanairlines #aviation #crash #news #dc #washingtondc

So without hearing ‘pass behind’ they would just proceed ‘into’ the CRJ? Still doesn’t make sense.

So keep on a collision course with a plane unless someone else you otherwise?

A helicopter with the most advanced radar systems didn’t see this plane? Really

There was a random guy on tiktok who played the audio and clocked this weeks ago. I knew he was right and was just waiting for it to be confirmed.

Even if they missed the “pass behind the” they wouldn’t have instead chosen to “collide with the”. Right?

They were still flying 150 feet higher up than they are supposed to! They are not to fly over 200 feet and they were at 350 feet

They literally reported the CRJ in sight… it doesn’t take more than common sense to deviate your course from the approaching aircraft on final

If the heli-pilot is confused or rattled, why can't she just fly on standby position? Observing or letting the plane to pass by first...

so, the main communication tool technology and protocols are defeated by accidental 800 millisecond mic keys?
