    ….

    PAT25(?) announced that they have a visual on the CRJ. ATC instructed them to maintain visual separation and then proceed behind the CRJ. They didn’t. No maydays, no panpans.

    It’s pilot deviation or pilot error.

    What would you be interested in with the black box? If the TAWS warned the CRJ pilots?

        New EO just dropped. We’re calling them white boxes and painting them to prevent future tragedy.

            Are we sure Trump isn’t a black box in disguise? 🤔

        Of course. Had it been a white box, it would have avoided this crash, we all know that!

        You right. Helicopters aren’t terrain. My bad

      TCAS doesn’t give resolution advisories (alerts that say to climb or descend to avoid traffic) below 1000’. It does have a warning noise still, but from my understanding it’s common for it to go off on approach due to all the other aircraft around and on the ground at the airport, so it may have been ignored.
