American Airlines crash at Reagan international 29 Jan 2025

There was a chain of compounding errors, however, it shouldn’t be under appreciated that the Black Hawk was out of parameters for minutes, not just seconds, before the collision.

You are more wise in the ways of science but MayDay pretty much every episode says there is a cascade of errors starting with a small one.

Unless its a bomb or missile.

It’s either a chain, or a stack of Swiss cheese slices where the holes line up. One link or one slice moved, and the event may not happen. But when they’re lined up….things don’t work out so well.
