Commercial Flight Collides with Helicopter Over Potomac

I really gotta wonder what kind of person you gotta be to let someone do that to your lips, and then wake up every day and look in the mirror and pretend you don't look like a clown.

Also she's a stupid ****.
be like sex in a butthole. You know she could suck the finish off one
 
Pilot error. Pilot error. Pilot error.

Debate this till your head falls off.

And yes in the ****ing Navy flying over water at night whoever is on the controls is on the gauges.

All the stupid schmucks flying ****hooks and crash hawks don’t know jack diddly **** about flying over water at night. If we ever got the word the dookie crew(Army)would be coming in from Aviano and needed a real crewman for boat landings the FNG got his ass sent on the death run.
 
Report last night said there was a near-miss like this 24 hours previous.
Didn't provide any details.
They happen far more frequently than the public knows about because the FAA is does the investigation into controller “Operational Errors” and “Operational Deviations” (NTSB does the investigation if it’s a crash) and they slip it under the rug by classifying it as a “non-occurrence”.
 
RIP Shipmate. You collected three set of wings on Earth, you got your last set the hard way.

Internet now says FAA has announced that ATC tower was seriously understaffed:

“The preliminary crash report detailed that the lack of staff meant the controller monitoring and directing helicopters near DCA was also instructing planes landing and departing on the runways.

Usually, two controllers would handle these roles, as staff use two different radio frequencies to talk to planes and helicopter pilots.”
I saw that on the news. They now know the tower was well understaffed. They also reported that a lot of good people were in line for those jobs , but they didn’t meet EDI requirements.
