How could 3 qualified pilots, all in communication with each other, not properly identify an airplane in the air? There was another similar airplane in the air space and on the approach, but for all 3 to make the same mistake?
How many seconds are involved in all this happening? Not very many. The helicopter was too high for some reason. Maybe that reason will come out; maybe it will not. Depends on what the physical evidence shows. Or does not. Facts do not lie. Now some people lie some of the time. Others all the time. If it quacks like a duck it probably is not a swan.
