Plane crash in DC plane and chopper in Potomac River (Sadly there were NO survivors)

What is already an obtuse and ignorant view is also factually wrong…

I'm not sure why you included the helicopter crash, but I'll give you the mutiny Bay. Thanks for the list of total crashes which definitely proves that the skies aren't safe under Trump. The total number of casualties is just sad to see

 

The helicopter crash makes a great point of how obtuse and ignorant your view is to put blame or give credit to a President on this issue the way you are.

One it was a commercial aviation accident. Two. It happened less than a week after Biden took office. Like the American Airlines being hit by a military chopper a week and a half after Trump took office.

 

Just for the board's situational awareness, this topic came up last night after the Marine Corps Association Foundation MARCENT Dinner, at a bar where I was with three Marine Corps helicopter pilots and one fixed wing pilot. One of the Marine Corps helicopter pilots had been an instructor pilot. There was some disagreement over who was ultimately responsible with the main issue of disagreement being over the training pilot and the instructor pilot. The instructor pilot side stated that whoever signed for the aircraft was responsible, the training pilot side stated the senior officer was, as they typically get deterred to on training flights. The discussion mainly focused on when the the training officer should have taken over from the senior officer. The main points of agreement were the fact that both pilots were on night vision goggles and they both probably did not see the plane they collided with and thought they did but mistook the next plane in the landing pattern as the one the tower was calling out to them.

 

Yet some here blame Trump. I hope it is ignorance on their part. Sadly I think it is hatred/stupidity.
