The Army is refusing to release the name of the "female" pilot, ostensibly because the family doesn't want it released.
So yeah, you can pretty much presume that it's a DEI hire with a bad training record or a ******.
There's no benign, innocent explanation for it, and gross negligence on part of whoever was at the controls of the Blackhawk.
Also, a 100 foot deviation will probably result in you busting an ATP checkride as that is the maximum allowable altitude deviation. Certainly if you don't correct it, the examiner will bust you. Most guys will fly an ATP ride with no worse than a 20-40 foot altitude deviation, with it being dead on at all times. These are fixed wing limits. I can't imagine the rotorcraft limits are any more lax.
It is suspicious. Usually government opacity means CYA.
Interesting take.
What do you think the Trump Administration is trying to hide?
From what I have heard, the family is refusing the right to publish the name. Is that legal?
I don't know.
The posters I was responding to insinuated it was a military/government coverup, and I'm hoping someone will answer my question.
And it may well be, the world is wondering the reason.
We do know that DEI was parr of the issue, without a doubt. The tower was supposed to be staffed with 30 people but only had 20 do to DEI training and hiring. These guys were overworked. The DEI stalled training at the FAA Academy in OKC. The classes were only partially filled and they had to turn down qualified applicants if they weren't of a certain race to fill the roster. And some other races didn't appear to be interested in doing that job.
