А сначала пришлось подождать, потому что один из вертолётов сломался и они его прямо на месте чинили.
Пока ждал, поговорил с колумбийцем, который хочет съездить в Россию - в Москву, Петербург и Волгоград(???). Я сам родом из Волгограда, так что чуть со стула там не упал .

Полет на вертолете над Рио-де-Жанейро.
Погода все время была неплохая, но именно во время нашего полета облака закрыли статую Иисуса, так что эффектных кадров не получилось. Придётся возвращаться.

model of real world war machine
Model painting of 1:72 scale Italeri AH-1W Super Cobra. Apparently a very old kit, the instructions are not great TBH. Probably should have airbrushed but I wanted to experiment with a different acrylic paint system. Base coat is Vallejo black model colour.

The Army has released the name of the third soldier…
AP NewsChief Warrant Officer Andrew Eaves, had 1,000 hours of flight time, which is considered experienced. The co-pilot, whose name is being withheld, had 500 hours, which is considered normal.
Officials also tell NPR that the #BlackHawk was supposed to be flying at a maximum of 200 feet, though sources say it was flying at least 100 feet higher. All requested anonymity given the sensitivity of the investigation.
Horrible:
#Disinformation on #socialmedia falsely claims she was a #transgender pilot from the Virginia National Guard named Jo Ellis. Ellis has posted a "proof of life" video on Facebook, denouncing the rumors & offering condolences to those killed in the crash.

Army IDs 2 names of the #BlackHawk #helicopter crew in DC #crash withholds 1
The Govs of GA & MS have identified 2 of the BlackHawk helicopter crew killed in a collision w/ #AA5342 at #ReaganNationalAirport on Wed night. They are Chief Warrant Officer Andrew Eaves, & Staff Sgt Ryan O'Hara.
At the request of the family the #Army is not going to release the name of the female member of the 3-person helicopter crew.
[probably because #Trump would attack her as a DEI hire]

The report, reviewed by The New York Times, said that…
The New York TimesJust 24 hours before the collision of American Eagle Flight #AA5342 & an Army #BlackHawk #helicopter near #ReaganNationalAirport on Wednesday, another jet trying to land there had to make a second approach after a helicopter appeared near its flight path, according to an audio recording from #ATC.
That plane, Republic Airways Flight 4514, eventually landed safely, flight tracker maps show.
