Can a helicopter be flown remotely?
Yes, a helicopter can be flown remotely, through the use of radio-controlled (RC) technology, where a pilot operates the helicopter using a controller that sends signals to the aircraft, allowing for flight without physically being onboard; this is commonly seen with hobbyist RC helicopters, but also exists in larger, more advanced systems for military and commercial applications.

It's not news. Blackhawks do have remote control capabilities. The question is: who was talking to the ATC as helo pilot and where all the bodies of Soviet figure skaters have been kept on ice since the 90s?

DOGEWontAmountToShit says

Why does it matter if the helo was flown remotely? 🤡

The plane was approaching the helo from rear left quadrant. Not so easy to spot if you are not deliberately looking for it. And why would they if they had another plane in front of them and ATC didn't say anything about TWO planes.

3. Helicopters operating in the traffic pattern may fly a pattern similar to the fixed-wing aircraft pattern, but at a lower altitude (500 AGL) and closer to the runway. This pattern may be on the opposite side of the runway from fixed-wing traffic when airspeed requires or for practice power-off landings (autorotation) and if local policy permits. Landings not to the runway must avoid the flow of fixed wing traffic.

I can map land with my drone just inputing some data in. Takes off, I push a button and it flies the course with no control input. I could have been 3 miles away and flown my drone into that plane. It's not hard.

Considering the supposed pilot in command was trans, the old swicharoo back to being their original gender makes them unidentifiable in the future. Just because they say training mission does not mean people were on board. Not a big conspiracy guy, but this a needle in a huge haystack type event. Hitting a moving target like that going 165 knots "could" be an accident, but I find that hard to believe.

Basically it would be like getting struck by lightening while an F5 tornado blows through walking the dog at the same time. It's really not possible. It was intentional.

Looks to me like this trans “woman”:

Why has there been no official release of the names of the pilots?

The tower was the locus of lamentable tragedy. A harried air traffic controller, juggling two jobs at the same time, noticed the looming disaster — but inexplicably failed to direct the helicopter and the plane to separate, offering instead something sounding more like an unhurried suggestion. The controller was handling both helicopters and planes —normally separate jobs— because their supervisor unaccountably let another controller go home early.

The F.A.A.’s preliminary report found tower staffing was “not normal for the time of day and volume of traffic.” Presumably, the FAA meant the tower was understaffed, since who would complain about overstaffing?

In the background of these instantaneous errors lies a fractured FAA having a slow-motion existential crisis. A class-action lawsuit continues grinding away in discovery, exposing the agency’s tragic 2014 decision to scrap merit-based testing when hiring air traffic controllers. Instead the FAA relied on a “biographical statement” that scored, you guessed it, totally irrelevant factors like skin color and ethnic background.

Reams of headlines over the last couple years have reported growing numbers of close calls at airports and an expanding crisis over staffing levels — a manpower crisis that festered even while the agency essentially refused to hire better-qualified white applicants, holding those jobs open for less-qualified minority applicants.

As bad as that sounds, it gets worse. The FAA’s critical staffing issues started —I am not making this up— with its mass layoffs in 2021 of controllers who refused to take the jabs. The agency has never recovered from that horrible mistake. It remains currently 3,000 controllers under normal staffing levels.

Thus, it is unsurprising that in its last survey in 2023, Pete Buttigieg’s DOT reported that 77% of critical air traffic control facilities were understaffed. The truth is probably closer to all of them.

In the same year, the New York Times reported that near-misses on airport runways (“incursions”) had climbed to an all-time high, and that overworked, burnt-out air traffic controllers were falling asleep on the job and getting drunk at work. To put a number on it, the FAA self-reported 1,750 runway incursions for each of the past three years. By comparison, in 2014, the year the FAA changed its testing standards, the agency reported only 1,278 incursions.

Finally, I am aware of widespread rumors on X that one of the three military pilots was a transgender ‘woman’ (biological male), and was possibly suicidal. Since I cannot confirm that rumor, I won’t further develop it, not until the DOD releases the crew’s names. If the rumor is true, then Trump knows it and the media doesn’t. Their ridiculous fact-checking might blow up in their faces.

Yesterday evening, President Trump signed a brand-new executive order titled, “Immediate Assessment of Aviation Safety.” The brief order identified some of the same problems I mentioned earlier and ordered the terrific new Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy and the incoming FAA Administrator to review all Biden-era decisions and orders — and to promptly fire anyone below minimum, merit-based standards.

Here’s the key paragraph in Trump’s EO reciting some of the FAA’s many failures:

This shocking event follows problematic and likely illegal decisions during the
Obama and Biden Administrations that minimized merit and competence in the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The Obama Administration implemented a
biographical questionnaire at the FAA to shift the hiring focus away from objective
aptitude. During my first term, my Administration raised standards to achieve the
highest standards of safety and excellence. But the Biden Administration
egregiously rejected merit-based hiring, requiring all executive departments and
agencies to implement dangerous "diversity equity and inclusion" tactics, and
specifically recruiting individuals with "severe intellectual" disabilities in the FAA.

I've done ground school for a damn toy, but it's harder than most people think. I'm not boosting my ego, but passed the first time. I don't think people understand how much there is to know if you're a pilot (I'm not). And we're not talking the plane/chopper itself.

My point is you don't do training with a disabled person in heavy trafficked airspace at night. I'd rather have a drunk flying the chopper not some tranny.

I procrastinated but wanted to shoot a show of my favorite band out in Missoula, MT. Kettlehouse. Didn't work out but we tried. It would have been awesome. The further point is this shouldn't have happened. There are so many checks before you leave the ground with any aircraft.

One Day Before Collision, Near Miss with Helicopter on Reagan Final Approach

Traffic Collision Avoidance System alert prompted commercial aircraft evasive maneuver and go around just 24 hours and 40 minutes before the collision.

The following video of air traffic around Reagan National captures a near miss between a commercial aircraft (Republic Airways 4514) on final approach with an Army helicopter just 24 hours and 40 minutes before the collision between an Army helicopter and American Airlines regional jet.

You remind me of the old Beverley Hillbillies TV show where Jethro brags to everyone about his 6th Grade education.

The 'best' information window has closed (usually the most proximate to the event) and everything from now on will be programmed layers of confusion and disinformation.

Some events will be re-characterized by both "sides" if something of 'great sensitivity' has occurred (aka a dirty bomb intercepted, some particular person killed on the down low but not revealed etc.) Of course, all of the unfortunate athletes will also be used as a smoke screen.

We can only hopium a 'real story' will eventually emerge that has some credibility, but more likely in two weeks nobody will even have much of a memory trace of this thing.

Jo Ellis is in a guard unit and this flight was not from that unit, she was also seen after the accident.

The third pilot is female, and name withheld per family request. That's all that we know for sure.

Figures. The unidentified female probably didn't know how to reverse the helicopter or parallel park.

they can't withhold this name since there are no Pentagon privacy laws protecting her identity since her next of kin were informed

You sound like someone that has no clue what they're talking about.

So, now the hypothetical surmise is that the unidentified person in the Blackhawk was the "target" which is why they aren't identifying? The heli was droned at the airplane remotely not for anybody or anything on the airplane, but for somebody on the heli? The plot thickens. Or, is it merely being thrown into another disinformation tangent?

Couldn't they have just run the Blackhawk into the ground, or is it Intel multi tasking? Some are speculating it is a John Brennan caper again, with DARPA running ops against Trump somehow. Their symbology (airport pentagram and/or Masonic symbol of the airport strips, 33 runway at last minute, Satanic Holiday (29th), so numerology, symbology and dates all line up for the satanic crap.

So, was this a Viking Funeral for the man who knew too much? By all counts, Brennan was a much hated POS by everybody who ever ran into him. It's hard to surmise that 'white hats' would have doused the airliner, so was Brennan on his way to turn State's evidence since his security clearances and security details were revoked? The most heinous of spymasters became a useless idiot and had the predictable retirement package? I wonder if we will ever find out, but Trump's usual inductive/deductive hints remain. Of course, it could be the customary faked death of a decoy so that Brennan can escape to some Intel spa destination rather than being GITMO'd.

Like said, with their security clearances revoked, all of the Russian Collusion 50 are in open season now.

Makes sense.

PIgnoring the Airborne Collision Avoidance System,
Absurd elevation, 400'
Looked like it was deliberate
Pentagon/Media censoring the name of the Trans pilot

Ceffer says

I hate memes, but this one is good. It really is not possible. The plane was in the pattern to land the runway they told them to. The chopper was not landing at Reagan as far as I've read. It was a "training" exercise and not official transfer supposedly.

You need night flying in urban areas for training, but an extremely busy airport in the pattern and you cross it at the altitude the planes should be at? 1+1=2,305 I guess. I guess they skipped the "training" part on knowing your airspace you're flying into. It is a near impossibility to t-bone a plane moving 160 knots unless using heat seeking detection with a chopper on accident.

Is the putsch on? Blackhawk left from Maclean VA mansion near Langley. Early comms said it was a 'continuity of government' transportation exercise. One heli occupant unidentified, but a flag draped body with saluting honor guard was removed from scene. Question is, who is putsching and who is the putsched? Cryptic Trump post suggests Brennan. If it was Brennan, they should dump the corpse at a feces recycling plant. Maybe Trump should dump the rest of the international corporate spooks in Lake Geneva, like so many countries have purged themselves of Jesuits.

Brennan, of course, was behind the entire Obama legend cutout Manchurian act as a grand symphony of deception and service to Satan.

I know I'm repetitive, but the more I read and watch, it had to be intentional. A 40 hour private pilot in a plane or chopper wouldn't make that mistake. You're not flying a Black Hawk with less than 100 hours at minimum. That's a big bird. You probably need 500 hours.

We'll see on the Philly crash. I'm thinking that was just poor maintenance. Small med vac jet. Patients and insurance generally won't pay out on those rides, so the planes lack upkeep. My SIL had a chopper ride after a severe accident and All State didn't payout. I think it was like $1.2M.

Unless the aviation companies get paid, there's little reason to spend money on upkeep of the aircraft outside of basic regulations. So you have aging aircraft that get looked at once a year and the just keep going until they don't.

Ceffer says

That sounds harsh. What did that feces recycling plant do to deserve that?

Any helicopter pilot would be checking left and right flying near an aiport in a high traffic area. And there were 3 on the chopper.

Pilot of Black Hawk Was Biden White House Social Aide

Capt. Rebecca M. Lobach was involved in many activities in D.C. apart from practicing her pilot skills.

The identity of the pilot in command of the Black Hawk helicopter has been disclosed to the public. Rebbeca M. Lobach, 28, of Durham, North Carolina was a Company Executive Officer of the 12th Aviation Battalion, Division Army Airfield, Fort Belvoir, Virginia.

Until recently, she also served as a “White House Military Social Aide, volunteering to support the President and First Lady at countless social events” (see full statement of her family below). ...



Her profile suggests that she was a bright, attractive, and socially gifted young woman, which made her a desirable person for showcasing the military’s commitment to having women in military roles that were previously occupied exclusively by men.

The trouble with these social and political activities is that performing them doesn’t sharpen one’s piloting skills.

It’s going to be tough for the Army to explain why it was training a woman with only 500 hours of experience—supported by a crew of only three (instead of a safer crew of four)—while wearing night vision goggles on the tight approach path to a busy commercial airport while exceedingly the altitude ceiling by almost 2X. This situation strikes me as inherently risky with little margin for error.

Sheesh, women drivers. Whatcha gonna do?

Pretty funny to see her escorting Ralph Lipschitz, who changed his last name to Lauren for some inexplicable reason, on his way to get his medal for decades of service to, uh, freedom. Right, freedom.

I don't basically believe the publicity releases. Too pat on the patsies. I don't think they will reveal who was on the Blackhawk. If it was someone of note killed as assassination or mock assassination, than that person will likely be represented in future by a body double for publicity shots. Also, there is the incessant Satanic requirement for deception.

This chick may be a 'shuttle disaster' casualty i.e. she may just show up somewhere else in future with a new or redirected identity.

Even the pundit Juan O Savin (military intelligence) is flummoxed by the event. Too many incongruent factors, too much spook-plex stuff. He is reserving judgment and won't even speculate and he has serious sources.

All that observers can do is throw out a table full of possibles and take your pick. Whatever happened, the directed media themes are covers.

First woman pilot to crash a helicopter into a plane full of passengers.

More Woo. The Super Bowl is rigged, let's see what the Satanic half time show is this time. The rigging according to some Woo'sters has been predestined according to the human sacrifices for the Eagles to win. Let's see if that one pans out.
