We have more than Canada. Of course they don't want this fight

Better info than CNN and MSDNC. That's why they are going bankrupt and Elon is the richest man in the world. He'll probably buy them too.
This is awkward, but why do think they run pipelines with oil down to refineries in the U.S.? I'll answer for you. To make gasoline.
Lol. I bet you used to hate Elon. You seem to base your whole life around politics. Hilarious.Better info than CNN and MSDNC. That's why they are going bankrupt and Elon is the richest man in the world. He'll probably buy them too.
It’s not personal with you because you know nobody involved. And the Pilot of the CRJ is absolutely the ONLY person involved in this accident that bears no responsibility. And all the shit that have talked you better hope and pray the chopper wasn’t above 200 ft .

Not sure what the projectile was, but at the rate it was moving it didn’t matter if it was a cotton ball. 2 inches lower and that old man was RIP’d.

Why would I hope and pray the chopper wasn’t above 200’? Exactly what “shit” and personal insults did I make in this discussion? Answers: none and none. I want the facts and and am not wishing for anything other than that 67 people hadn’t lost their lives.
Below is a map of Canada’s energy pipelines, many of which cross into America. The Energy East line, which was supposed to be built, was canceled by Canada’s leftists due to “climate issues.”
Canada's threats to withhold or tax oil from Canada are hollow since even pipelines servicing Canada dip into the USA before coming back up.
You said you are going to trust a 6 yr chopper pilot over a young inexperienced pilot flying a subcontractor plane. Again the chopper asked for and received visual separation.yiu also said maybe the plane came in low. It doesn’t matter the it’s tje plane’s airspace above plane below the plane and on both sides. Initial reports were the collision occurred at 300 ft give or take. That’s not official. You defended the chopper pilot and said she was relying on others and you don’t think they were above 200 . That maybe accurate yet . You also said it’s everyone was Short staffed ( chopper and tower) which is true. If the chopper was above 200 that falls directly on the chopper pilot. If it falls turns out the chopper was then it’s totally the Chopper pilots fault and she murdered 66 other people.
Regardless, you believe tariffs are good for the US? Just trying to figure out where some of you stand.
They would have a problem getting oil to the east coast. Not sure if they have the rail capacity to get enough crude east to meet domestic demand.
Why would anybody want this fight? Day 1 prices were supposed to fall. How does this help that?
It’s one of the few weapons we have tomake sure unfriendly countries aren’t taking advantage of us. China has always manipulated currencies and markets to screw us over. We’ve made them very wealthy.
No. You should give more clear communication. You can’t be vague in a congested traffic area.
Rarely is there a single point of failure. Just like any accident, especially in aviation, there are at least a couple links in the chain that were broken. You can’t only look at one element, place blame, and think you fixed the problem.
I agree the chopper wasn’t at the correct altitude, but again, especially with aviation, you need to correct all issues so it doesn’t happen again. Vague communication bites you in the ass more often than you think.

You consider Canada unfriendly? You must not like good fishing. I think anyone who has interacted with actual Canadians would think this is stupid.
But in very very few instance has it ever produced a net positive result. China has made us very wealthy too. You really think these American industries want to pay the wages and prices associated with production of some of the goods that chinese companies do for them at pennies on the dollar? Who's going to foot that bill in the end? The very people who voted to lower prices in the first place. Makes no sense. Yet it does when we look at the history of the person making the decisions.
I was watching the scene on local DC TV minutes after the fire trucks and ambulances went by my hotel. Initial reports were 500’. I gave the 350’ estimate from a retired Blackhawk pilot who had flown that route many times. That was how high she estimated the chopper would have had to be to hit a landing plane. It clearly was not that high nor did I believe most pilots would come in that high because of the proximity of the runway end to the river. Yesterday a NTSB official said that the control tower data recorder indicated the chopper was at 200’ give or take 25’. I’m not sure what the margin of error is for their instrumentation but it must be in the 25’ range. That would mean according to their data the chopper pilot had not exceeded their ceiling.
Would a more experienced commercial pilot make their approach from a higher steeper angle knowing about the chopper traffic? Had this young guy ever landed at Reagan? Was he even aware there could be crossing chopper traffic? All questions it would be interesting to know answers to. None of that would change the assignment of fault.
Canada’s problem has been their lax immigration enforcement. That’s what the tariffs are largely about with them. As far as trade goes, they look out for themselves first. It’s about time we do the same.
...you think its at all possible she flew into that plane on purpose? ..and was the delay to release her name so they could scrub her online history just a family not wanting any unwanted attention? Which I understand...but this whole deal seems really weird to me.
But is that really a reason for tariffs? Unless he's simply trying to get them to step up their border game similar to what Mexico agreed to do.
Its not the responsibility of the Airline pilots to be an aware of chopper traffic its the chopper’s responsibility to be aware of tje airline traffic its the airline’s air space. Thats why when the chopper took of and contacted the tower they were told of heavy airliner traffic ahead.
