I deleted a thread yesterday because I was catching flack. Gonna post again though. [View all]

Is it possible that the helicopter pilot committed terrorism or suicide.

We know the helo pilot was off track and flying higher than ever allowed. Plus two new videos showing an acceleration directly into the plane.

I think these are fair questions. And I think Trump would want to cover up a purposeful act.

There was that one pilot that flew a plane full of passengers into a mountain to commit suicide. boston bean Jan 31 #18

That was Germanwings Flight 9525. But not the only incident EX500rider Jan 31 #27

I think it is more likely it was an accident because of the way it appeared to happen Meowmee Jan 31 #30

Someone here says there is no black box on those helicopters though Meowmee Jan 31 #19

The post I read was they stated when THEY were flying. Didn't give a time frame. yagotme Jan 31 #22

Given that the NTSB briefing talked about the heli's black box, I think that poster was incorrect. LauraInLA Jan 31 #24

I'm sorry, but I don't know what you mean by this. madaboutharry Jan 31 #34

There could be other reasons he responded. I don't find his answering alone to be determinative. boston bean Jan 31 #35

It could have just presented itself as an opportunity not did not have to be planned out, no? boston bean Jan 31 #40

Why would a terrorism strike or suicide be "unplanned" crimycarny Jan 31 #61
