#1 Black Hawk pilot failed to heed flight instructor in moments before plane collision over DC: report

"Refused" and "ignored" are such ugly words.

#3 /\ The aviation industry appears to be particularly susceptible, and of course we still do not know who was on duty in the control tower.

#7 Lots going on in a check ride. There is a lot of people slamming the woman, DEI or not, as being at fault. The Army is very clear on pilots. The Pilot In Command is fully responsible for the aircraft, its flight path and the crew. She was not the PIC, The W2 in the left seat was. If she did not respond to his command to fly lower he was obligated to take action and keep the aircraft in a safe flight path. He failed, the female pilot and the crew chief died because of it. All this DEI shit is throwing shade on the dead.
