Washington Plane crash

[harm_less]

I heard a report that suggested one of the chopper pilots was in training...

Either way, it is an awful tragedy. Long term trauma for the families, exacerbated by the idiot in chief letting his commonsense pour out all over the media.

According to the article the helicopter was training for an evacuation strategy of important government officials in case of a serious emergency situation (e.g. nuclear strike). Unfortunately it seems there were no such officials on board the chopper at the time of the collision.
