but this latest idiocy of firing probationary FAA employees will not make things safer. On the upside, 2 billionaire private jets could have a near midair which might get some needed attention and funding!

The FAA has been historically short staffed from the moment Reagan destroyed the completely legal controllers union - PATCO. Each subsequent Administration and Congress has kicked the can down the road,

What I have not yet heard alluded to is that the military helicopter was transmitting on UHF well the American Airlines flight was on VHF, so we're not hearing each other!! #47 brilliantly deduced and appeared to be surprised that the aircraft were both at the same altitude when they collided!!

Cont: Then last week the idiot in charge thought it would be a great idea to further gut the safety side of the FAA by wholesale firing the advisory council. This would not have helped last nights accident, which was years in the making, but it will certainly impact the FAAs ability to react to it

As an airline captain who has flown in and out of DCA many times, I can tell you that being given a last minute runway change from rwy 01 (North) to rwy 33 (NW), is a stressful evolution, in part because it's unexpected, but more importantly here, because there are several prohibited areas ie.

I believe Voldemort might just be a racist idiot. Now we'll see if a 6-3 SCOTUS agrees that we don't need any EO anymore, because that problem has been solved.
