To be clear, I am not a pilot. I used to sit between the pilots and heckle bad landings, and, at one point, was a CRM 'facilitator' and a sim operator I tried to avoid helicopters like the whirling cuisinarts of death that they are but failed in that and got detached to work with them for a bit.
There is more to this story than simply dumping this onto the crew. For example, according to the NTSB's preliminary report, there with 15,000+ 'proximity events' from 2021-2024. Why was that corridor even open? There's no question the -60 drivers fucked up and killed a bunch of people. But, frankly, they paid the price. So did 67 others. I want to know where else culpability lies.
It's better to wait for the report.
