I wonder how many of the pilots took the jabs...

How the hell did that happen? I bet you could not repeat that disaster again if you tried.

Almost looked deliberate. Low altitude, maximum visibility, probably highly skilled pilots. Seems bizarre.

It almost looked like a heat seeking missile strike.

Looks almost intentional... no irratic movements in flight path prior impact. Unless he left a note with motive. TSA will chock this up as pilot error.

Obviously, we have a view neither piilot had.
Looks like a terrible accident to me.

The fighter pilot just cut it too close if you ask me.

They try to make it exciting for those on the ground. Mission accomplished

That’s what they say……..

But I haven’t sat in the left seat for about 20 years now. Sold my plane looking to upgrade 2 weeks before 9-11.

Everything went to hell after that. I rented a few times after but gave it up after a few years. My wife encourages me to go back to it, but it’s not really convenient where I live.

Maybe someday…….

A guy I trade with knew the people in the larger plane. Just a huge tragedy all around.
