Shortly before 10 a.m. Sunday, the Sikorsky S-76 chopper with nine people aboard climbed to about 2,300 feet seemingly in an attempt to clearthe thick cloud layer. It hit part of a ravine in the Calabasas and fell, crashing in an area on the hillside 1,085 feet above sea level, National Transportation Safety Board member Jennifer Homendy said. The helicopter plunged into a steep descent with a rate of "over 2,000 feet per minute," making it a "high-energy impact crash." "This is a pretty steep descent at high speed," Homendy said. "It wouldn't be a normal landing speed." The time from descent to impact was about a minute, she added. The helicopter was navigating a canyon with multiple hills and peaks, NTSB investigator Bill English noted, describing the area as a "ravine with undulating terrain." "The main impact was about 20 to 30 feet from that small hill, but there were other higher hills surrounding it…it’s in a canyon with small hills within it," he said.....”

Just wait and see the flood damage it causes.

I hope he goes after Feinstein's senate seat when she dies any second now.

This just makes me want to vote for Joe Biden.

It'll be worse when the senate starts investigating Biden and Burisma because Lindsay thinks it's the dem's turn to get investigated.

One of many reasons we won't show up to a debate against the dem candidate.

wrong thread.

I think it'll just be Romney that votes for witnesses.

NTSB investigators said the helicopter, which crashed into a hillside, also lacked a terrain avoidance warning system, something the transportation safety agency also has long recommended be standard. The pilot missed clearing the hill by 20 to 30 feet, investigators said Tuesday. In 2017, the FAA told the NTSB it was seeking to perform a cost-benefit analysis. But the agency said it was required to demonstrate to the White House budget office that the safety benefits of new regulations outweigh their costs and that it was unable “to justify a recorder mandate because the benefits of recorders are difficult to identify and quantify because the absence of a recorder will never cause an accident.” Last year, Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) joined the NTSB’s call after a helicopter crashed into a New York skyscraper, telling the Associated Press the FAA’s failure to act was a “serious concern.”

anyone know how the question days will work?

I didn’t say it would. Again, the only way to reduce congestion is to reduce the amount of single occupant cars.

Thanks but we all know who the real hero is.

It was on camera. That should be in DNC ads this summer.

Why even pay the bill to keep that site up?

Did someone forget to add Hilary?

NTSB Media Briefing by Jennifer Homendy from NTSB * 2 Pratt & Whitney engines * Asked public for photos of the weather in the area witness@ntsb.gov * FBI there to help collect evidence, no criminal investigation. * Circling was to wait for SVFR approval. * Pilot requested flight following to Camarillo. * Pilot told ATC he was climbing to avoid cloud layer, no reply after that. * Last radar contact 9:45am [matches ADS-B] * Another press briefing tomorrow. * NTSB will be on scene for 5 days. Q&A * What is flight following? radar assistance for the flight. * Debris field about 500-600 ft. Fuselage, main rotor, tail in separate places * No black box, no CVR, no FDR. (not required) * Only an ipad for flight planning. * Impact crater is 1085 ft above sea level

Dershowitz Is good.

That was tough. D-wade's was too. Has Shaq gone on camera? I thought he and Kobe were still estranged but his tweets made it sound like they were friends.

A lot about the Bidens.

That might be a stretch.

"Trump stayed home to manage the hurricane Dorian response" ...from the golf course.

"runaway house" lol

Nothing would make me happier if Trump goes off prompter at the state of the union and if he takes his adderal.
