By now, I’m sure you have seen the news of the horrific American Airlines crash into the Blackhawk Helicopter in DC.
There are no survivors, all 60 aboard the airplane are dead as well as everyone aboard the Blackhawk Helicopter.
But now I want to advance the story and dig down into what may have really happened….
Because at face value, with all of our technology aboard the planes, aboard the Blackhawk, and within Air Traffic Control, plus just the visual look out the windows of the pilots aboard both craft, it seems almost impossible that this could happen.
At face value, we’re all thinking exactly what President Trump was thinking when he posted this:
It looks like the Blackhawk just flies right into the plane, like a bug flying into a light on a hot summer night.
How can that happen?
I have some possible answers for you that I think might really help explain things.
First, this morning we got a new angle of the crash that shows things much more clearly and reinforces all the questions I listed above — how can this possibly happen?
Now let’s dig into some answers, and for that I’m going to go to my friend MeetKevin who always does excellent work doing deep dives into things like this.
But especially on this topic, because he recently got his pilot’s license and is soon going to sit for his instrument rating test, so he’s uniquely suited to break this down from the perspective of the cockpit.
His analysis gave me a lot of new information I didn’t previously understand, and while I hate seeing the number “33” featured so prominently in this crash, perhaps there’s no grand conspiracy here at all….perhaps it’s just a series of several very unfortunate events.
I’m going to show you two videos, and I will put a full transcript below each video.
The first video was from last night, as initial information was first coming in.
I think it really gives some great information and lays a good foundation of things to consider here that might not be clear at face value, especially if you’re not a pilot.
Then in the second video, we have a LOT of new breaking information out this morning including actually communication recordings between the Helicopter and Air Traffic Control that potentially explain exactly how this may have happened. Plus night vision goggles.
Here is Video #1:
