From: ndaerobs@aol.com

What follows is a message that was forwarded to me from a friend from college (Class of 1969) 

who was a pilot in the USAF and went on to fly for Delta for many years.

I find what follows to be a very interesting analysis. Of course, the talking DEI heads that still dwell 

in the DoD and the lame stream media (i.e. those that Trump and Hegseth haven't yet gotten around to 

firing from DoD) are now implying the helo equipment was not working properly, which to my way of 

thinking is simply trying to shift accountability.  Well duh!  Of course the equipment wouldn't be working 

at all if you turned the damn thing off.

The only thing the Bumbles mis-administration, along with its co-conspirators on the Hill like Little Chuckie 

Sh*thead, Nutso Nancy, Adam Shiftless, etc., accomplished in 4 years was to complete turning this nation 

into the total cluster f*ck envisioned by Obama.  I hope and pray Trump will be able to right the ship.

Oh, by the way, way back in the 70's when I was flying in the USAF, I had to have 1000 hours of flight time 

before I could upgrade to the left seat, i.e. Aircraft Commander/Pilot in Command.

Best Regards,

Got this email in from one of my graybeard aviation networks. Both these guys are retired A.F. Command Pilots, retired Airline Captains.

Still need to see the final NTSB Report before drawing conclusions though.

Thanks Keith;

Internet went T/U eight days ago and I just got it back. I was unaware of this info and will certainly pass 

it on to my aviation buddies. Can't say that I'm very surprised though Four years of Biden's ghost government 

DEI policies had totally ruined he military and endangered aviation operations world-wide. Thank God the

common-sense adults are back in charge!

I received this today and it matches my info and sense of the facts.

I waited to weigh in on the DC plane crash because I wanted to get the facts straight. I didn't want 

to dishonor those who lost their lives or tarnish the legacy of a dedicated military member. 

However, now that I've done my homework and have an informed opinion, it’s time to say it loud 

and clear: President Trump was absolutely right—insane Democrat DEI policies contributed to 

this disaster.

 Let’s get to the core of the issue. 

The air traffic controllers at Reagan National were severely understaffed that night due to DEI 

policies that kept over 1,000 qualified applicants from getting hired—all so that the FAA could 

prioritize candidates who fit certain diversity criteria. This ridiculous situation put the FAA in 

the middle of a class-action lawsuit before the crash even occurred! As a pilot, I can confidently 

say that since the Obama administration’s DEI initiatives, the quality of air traffic controllers has 

taken a nosedive. Competent controllers are stuck cleaning up the mess made by those who were 

hired under DEI guidelines.

Now, let’s focus on Captain Rebecca Lobach—she's the person responsible for this crash. Flying 

at 325 feet, which is 125 feet above the helicopter ceiling, she absolutely deserves the blame. With

 only 450 hours of flight time, she was the pilot in command during a continuity of government 

exercise. Usually, it takes at least 1,000 hours and 2–4 years of experience to be designated as PIC, 

especially when tasked with flying VIPs.

 The Army said she was the pilot in command during night training, but her inexperience was 

glaring when she shut off the ADS-B safety system. That system could have alerted the airliner, 

and there’s absolutely no reason for it to be switched off during training in crowded airspace. 

The instructor pilot, with 1,000 hours of experience, should have been paying closer attention 

and corrected these obvious and deadly mistakes. This is just unacceptable.

 And here’s something that really stands out: the government waited three days to share her name 

because they were busy erasing her social media presence and that of her family to cover up the

truth. She worked as a social aide in the Biden White House, was a lesbian, and a vocal participant 

in the "Pride" movement, frequently attending rallies and protests. In fact, she bought a $540,000 

house four years ago while serving as a second lieutenant with a mere $43k annual salary from the 

Army, with financial help from an unnamed partner.  The fact she was a lesbian is relevant because 

it is one of the DEI criteria to be selected for elevation, in addition until 2010 she would not have 

been eligible to serve due to her sexual orientation therefore this incident would not have happened.

 Let’s not overlook the fact that the average commercial airline pilot has around 7,500 hours of flight 

time and must have a minimum of 1,500 hours to get a ATP license.. The American Airlines pilots 

involved in this crash? They certainly aren’t to blame. The responsibility falls squarely on Capt. 

Lobach and the reckless DEI policies that helped create this situation. It’s time to call it like it is and 

hold those accountable who should be.

 Sharing this with you,

 Keith
