Could the Black Hawk helicopter that slammed into a passenger airplane last week have had faulty altitude readings? That is what new data suggests.
Early investigation shows that the Black Hawk was shown an altitude of 200 feet, even though the crash happened at around 325 feet. Black Hawks are not supposed to fly above 200 feet so why were they? Did they have faulty readings? Was the system hacked to show faulty readings? Did the pilots not know that they were well over their allowed altitude?
To be honest, I’m surprised they’ve even acknowledged this much. Two men were arrested for leaking the footage of the airplanes collapsing. They were airport employees.
