“… Data from the jet’s flight recorder showed its altitude as 325 feet (99 meters), plus or minus 25 feet (7.6 meters), when the crash happened Wednesday night, National Transportation Safety Board officials told reporters. Data in the control tower, though, showed the Black Hawk helicopter at 200 feet (61 meters) at the time.
The roughly 100-foot (30-meter) discrepancy has yet to be explained.
Investigators hope to reconcile the altitude differences with data from the helicopter’s black box, which is taking more time to retrieve because it became waterlogged after it plunged into the Potomac River. They also said they plan to refine the tower data, which can be less reliable. …”
Aircraft has disappeared in Alaska. Alaska is a rough place for small planes.
Is this like when the media fixates on shark attacks in the summer or an actual issue?

You didn’t watch Black Hawk Down. You watched Surviving Black Hawk Down. One is a movie, one is a documentary around the events in that movie. Very different.I watched Black Hawk Down on Netflix last night. Kinda of a hard watching knowing the good guys get humiliated. Well, sort of. The bravery these people demonstrate to me is simply unimaginable. I did find interesting the background of three of the survivors featureds, which was essentially lost years as a teenager, no direction, drug use, etc, until they found a direction. I suppose becoming a Army Ranger is just another way to push the envelope. Anyway, for me a hard watch, but recommend it.
Thanks for correction.You didn’t watch Black Hawk Down. You watched Surviving Black Hawk Down. One is a movie, one is a documentary around the events in that movie. Very different.
