...I seem to recall that somewhere along the line once the chopper pilot confirmed that he could see the jet that approval had been given for the chopper to vary altitude above or below approved level. Can't find it now.

...there is some reason we do not know anything about the chopper pilot. The family has requested the name not be released. It don't make sense. Was this a DEI failure? Have they found a MANIFESTO? Is the deceased pilot part of a religious "minority". The Stalling is only adding fuel to the fires of speculation.

Based on a determination of the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter's last location before colliding with American Airlines 5342 from Wichita, the Army chopper was flying above its authorized flight path, according to anonymous sources who spoke to the New York Times. The American CRJ300 stopped transmitting tracking data at 375 feet -- suggesting impact occurred far above the 200-foot ceiling imposed on helicopters in that area.ā€¯
