4 years of military police and 10 years of firefighting/ems/sar will do that to ya

I puked my soul out Monday night and am still trying to find it again

Hell yeah! Waiting for the weather to clear up and then I'll be doing a bunch more work with ADIAT. I still need to do a full video on the thermal Hotspot detection, and want to do one with progressively smaller and smaller items of bright color as well! Can't wait to play around with the new update, it's legitimately one of my favorite softwares!

Never thought I'd like a lever action, but it's become my go to hiking rifle. I just need to mount a scope on it. And it's extremely comfortable, but definitely not entirely made for tromping through all that brush I was in. But I'm a firm believer that gear is meant to be used!

@@NorthWindAerial Absolutely! Did you say it was a Ruger?

Got a video planned on night search and rescue soon, just gotta beat this flu first. I'm still using the thermal in the day time when the ambient temp is freezing though.

We gonna see u 🤪

Yeah... gonna be many years before the burn scars entirely fade unfortunately.

Agreed. Saw something that he turned himself in right after it happened, which if so definitely makes me have more respect to him. Haven't seen it confirmed yet.

That seems to be one of the leading theories is that the Helo had eyes on a different airplane.

10 gauge is hard to find around here, punt gun is far too big for point defense.

In the recording the helicopter never reported the CRJ in sight. So maybe they didn’t see it for whatever reason. The controller should’ve probably used altitude separation instead of see and avoid. Especially at night time

From what I've been reading, the helo pilots *were* responding back just on a different frequency not recorded in the archival footage.

@@NorthWindAerial That’s good to know. I hate that for the controller though. They’ll still try to put some blame on him like saying he didn’t give a “specific” traffic call to the helicopter. Like saying traffic at your 11 o’clock, 2 miles. That sort of thing

not 100%; but ATC could have told AAL5342 to abort landing and further tell PAT25 (or both) that they are on collision course straight up instead. But traffic was too much.

@@yToughi Yeah seems to me to be about 10% crj fault and the rest an even split for ATC and the heli. Can’t even imagine how ATC guy is feeling begging the only living person to blame.

Thank you, pinned.

ATC asks the Helo if they have eyes on the Plane. ATC directs the Helo to pass behind the Plane. Collision happens, you can hear clips of the ATC personnel reacting to the Collision. ATC begins directing all other aircraft to ascend and divert. Hope that helps! It's definitely hard to hear.

@NorthWindAerial thank you!

According to news releases, the Helo was on a training mission. I'm doing my best not to speculate, but the Helo was asked if they had eyes on the plane and then directed to pass behind it, which it appears it didn't.

Helo was responding, but since they're military, their outbound radio traffic can't be heard on this recording. The controller could've heard them loud and clear though. Military talks to ATC on a different frequency but listens on the normal one

@zakm0n copy. Was unaware of that. Thanks for the info!

@@NorthWindAerial Shades of PSA 182

@@NorthWindAerialhas their ever been a case of a rouge pilot doing something on purpose. How do you miss a plane in front of you on radar

First off sir, please check the mirror for facial drooping to ensure you're not having a medical emergency. Secondly, it is. This is the link to the archive. archive.liveatc.net/kdca/KDCA1-Twr-Jan-30-2025-0130Z.mp3

it literally is

Turns out that James was having a stroke and you saved his life. 👏

Are you ignoring the massive amount of first responders that headed to the scene to begin SAR operations? This was a tragic accident and the emergency response has been overwhelming.

Stop projecting. Just because you’re a cruel AH that laughs at the loss of human (American) lives, doesn’t mean everyone else is too.

There’s 300 people searching the river wtf are you talking about

@@NorthWindAerial the way they said it is heartless, but they probably referring to our country’s unwillingness to limit traffic in DCA airspace to avoid inconveniencing inconveniencing commercial airline businesses or the enforcement of global economic hegemony through military buildup.

Updated the title, thank you.

Yep.

Elon Musk just told the head of the FAA to resign. He did. America is in for a rude awakening.

NAS overburdened and failed

@@jass7981 this wasn’t the result of an FAA issue. Seems like helo pilot didn’t have a transponder on for ATC to have their altitude, and then failed the order to follow behind the CRJ after confirming visual on it.

I don't know if it'll be industry changing. But it will probably mean more elaborate traffic pattern regulation and control for the airspace around DCA. Speaking as someone who lives 5 minutes from the airport (can see flashing fire/rescue lights out my window right now) and works underneath the final approach pattern for Runway 33, this has been coming.

You seem kinda an idiot to me

These have fireworks, but I've seen a robot dog armed with a flamethrower and drones armed with machine guns. Everyday we're getting closer to Cyberpunk becoming a reality.

I've got some friends I'm hoping to collaborate with soon for more outdoor adventures and cooking. The ones I mentioned in this video, @jades_overlanding I'm very comfortable with hiking through the snow but am a complete ninny when it comes to driving through it outside of normal streets. It's something I'd love to try more. One of these times I'll have to get you to try my FPV drones! They're an absolute blast to fly even when low and slow like this. Especially when using the motion controller (that I of course forgot in this video 😅) it's just stupid amounts of fun.

@ Right on!

Agreed! She absolutely NAILED it. I would have been terrified voiceless.

@@NorthWindAerial Exactly! Not easy even for pros.

I don't know why I never thought of the Bayliss Library... my own mother used to work there! I will absolutely add this to my list. Thank you so much for the suggestion!

I have a postcard of Aerial view of Bayliss i can share if interested. It was from Bayliss Store. Thats great your Mother worked at library.

@johnniejohnson7916 please do! You can scan and email it to me at northwindaerialimaging@gmail.com

I sent a pic already I dont know how to scan but hope its well. The Library and the Grange would be a good feature. I read in early 1900s or during World War 1 Some actually expected Bayliss to prosper into a major city given the Agriculture and one time some thought Willows would prosper into a major metropolis w the coming of Sears and a City Engineer even thought Willows would grow to become as big as Modesto.

Correct. Son's friend had a birthday party and the parents weren't sure what to do with the giant piñata afterward.

@@NorthWindAerial Thats awesome

If you're on a very tight budget, Web ODM. One time payment, no cloud based services. If you can fit it in the budget, you can't go wrong with NOVA. I believe it's about $500 (USD) per year, which seems like a lot until you see some software that costs that per MONTH. NOVA is extremely simple to use from uploading to exporting and they've got a Super helpful team that'll help you get set up.

Don't see why you shouldn't be able to. The RC Plus and Pro both have screensharing built in already for casting, I use it often. You can also do a livestream easily using FH2 or RTMP streaming as long as the controller has an internet connection. Worst case scenario, the RC Plus also has the HDMI port built in.

@NorthWindAerial thanks for the tips

@claudenormandeau9211 always happy to help! If you need anything demonstrated or experimented with let me know, I'm always looking for more video ideas and new things to learn!

M30T has hot swap. I'd have to time my M3T to see how long it takes.

More than happy to help!

Thank you!
