1
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, single best idea on

2
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 1: a different day, and you know, I will be honest,

3
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 1: it's twenty four hours for the team. One of our

4
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 1: members is at Disney World and he was involved in

5
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: the discussion as well. But starting about one am, it

6
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: was trying to piece together this horrific crash at Reagan

7
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: O Reagan that we all know at Reagan National, that

8
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,319
Speaker 1: we all no and I had nothing to do with this.

9
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: They went out and they got the horse, the goat.

10
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: Richard Levy is legendary. He flew at sixteen years old.

11
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: He's a Texas loghorn, and I won't even begin to

12
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: describe his resume. He is central casting in Hollywood of

13
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: what an American pilot is. Forty years with American Airlines.

14
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: Richard Levy on your system. Is it shattered this morning

15
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: our confidence in aviation?

16
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,759
Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. Is this sad and regretful?

17
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 2: Of course it is for the families of the deceased

18
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 2: on both sides. The PSA Regional airplane. By the way,

19
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 2: this was a PSA Regional aircraft operator on behalf of

20
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 2: America Airlines, but the flight crew were not part of

21
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 2: the American airlines pilots itself, zero training from American airlines. Yes,

22
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 2: it had an American on its flight number. Every major

23
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: airline in the US, not every, but majority have regional

24
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 2: airlines feeding them in the smaller cities around the United

25
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: States networks very successfully. In any event, this mid air

26
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 2: collision here between THESA aircraft, the CRJA seven hundred and

27
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 2: the Army black Hawk helicopter is very regretful and we're

28
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: gonna learn from it.

29
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: We're gonna learn from it. It's gonna take months and weeks.

30
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: We're not gonna speculate. We're gonna wait to hear what

31
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: the pros say. But one thing we know, and we

32
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: live every day here on the East Coast is a

33
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: congestion of some of these airports. We talked about the

34
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: growth of airports gates in America, and of course Captain

35
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: Levy went to the big platforms like Ohair.

36
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 2: The airports in the United States, whether it's JFK, whether

37
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 2: it's DFW. You mentioned Chicago here is based there thirty

38
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 2: five years, magnificently manage and run. But it's a two

39
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 2: way process there. You have the air traffic controllers on

40
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 2: the radar as you approach or depart the airport, and

41
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: then what we call the local controllers, the control tower people,

42
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: and they're often working with good weather like it was

43
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 2: last night at four nine pm Eastern time. It's a

44
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 2: C and B seen and so we can talk about that.

45
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: But the PSA was brought into the airport normally, safely, correctly.

46
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 2: We're going to be focusing on this Army helicopter, which

47
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 2: we can talk about.

48
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: Seems to be where we are now is a look

49
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: not only at the American Airlines regional bombardier, but also

50
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: at the Army helicopter. Thanks to all of our team

51
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: for an exhausting day on YouTube podcast single Best I

52
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:28,600
