    Plane down in DC

    I know ADSB transmits pressure altitude, but what does ATC see on their displays? I think I read TCAS uses both pressure and radar altitude. 24 hours prior TCAS avoided a mid air collision between a commercial flight and military helo. I don't recall seeing the RA alerts on the fateful collision.

    It's called "continuous vetting." They already know.

    Plane crash in Philly

    The Canadian geese were in the country illegally. I'm sure Trump will blame Biden open border policies.

    Plane crash in Philly

    Reached a max altitude of 1400 ft. Likely flew into a flock of Canadian geese taking out both engines and/or came through the canopy. Sunset was approximately 5:20 PM local time. Pilot would likely not have been able to see them at that time of day. Dual engine out and/or canopy breach at...

    based on VH60 direction and altitude of flight, I am having trouble believing this was anything but intentional.

    Plane down in DC

    Which if one controller was handling traffic on two different frequencies normally handled by two, he may have not used the correct frequency to contact the VH60

    Plane down in DC

    Do NVG reduce visibility of normal wing or landing lights? I think I read that even though the two aircraft were in the same airspace, they were on different ATC frequencies. ATC tried to contact the UH60, but from the transcripts and audio, ATC never received an acknowledgement from the UH60...

    Plane down in DC

    By no means an expert, but sad nonetheless. Looks like the VH60 dropped in altitude just prior to approaching the CRJ, indicating possible deliberate action to avoid collision. Likely means the CRJ had lost visual of the VH60 at that close range. Unfortunately, the CRJ was descending on...

    Seagate gate

    Common problem. There are OEM and third party tools that can reset all the SMART information and even reset the serial number. You think you found a good deal on a "new" drive from some unscrupulous seller only to find out they are selling used drives as "new". If it's sounds too good to be...

    Malibu Fires

    Seems like these CA press conferences how to prepare or how to seek assistance are a complete waste of [redacted] time. People who already lost their homes or lost power are not sitting around watching TV to listen them babble on about what web site or street address to go to.
