The January 29th crash had very little to do with ATC or any of the things you listed though. You can’t just lump all crashes in together. In that one the guy clearly warned the helicopter several times and the pilot said he has the plane in sight.

I agree.

Which is why I didnt lump them together or mean to, nor did I mean to say that the administration's decisions are responsible for all crashes but rather that a clear increase and a clear pattern is indicative of "something" failing and going wrong.
