    In the wake of the tragic crash in New York City’s East River, I’m joining @SenSchumer to call for a thorough examination of how unsafe helicopter practices, like ‘doors off' helicopters and dangerous harness systems, ever received approval from the FAA.https://apnews.com/2dc4249f554a41ac95fe255b16413e8b …

        Yes, every tragedy needs to be an excuse to pass another federal law and spend more money.

        We need emergency flotation devices on the skids to deploy on impact. Keeping them on top of the H20 will save lives. EMS can gain quick access + rescue.

        unsafe? the helicopter crashed. no one fell out. The harnesses definitely need to be reviewed but doors off aren't the issue. Let's not overreact with over-regulation on something that thousands of people have enjoyed safely up until this crash.

        Pretty sure they were going to conduct a thorough investigation without you saying anything. But now it will be extra thorough. Typical politician putting your face where it does t belong.

        Yes, it was tragic. So was the bridge in Florida. It will be investigated. But what about today’s talking points: Trump firing people? Opiates? Daca? Trump tax cuts? Russia? Medical Marijuana? Gun control? Identity politics candidates? Please stay with the program.

        This is silly. We don't have to add new regulations for every damn accident that happens. It's tragic, but doors off helicopter flights are common practice and shouldn't be limited. How absurd.

        At one time there were doors on helicopters. Safety first. Send your child in an unsafe helicopter!

        What? I've flown in doors-off helicopters multiple times, as a child and as an adult. It's fine.

        If you’re such a genius, figure out a way for that to happen & keep the film crew safe!

        I'm not an expert in helicopter flight mechanics or safety, I'm simply asking an obvious question. I mean I've heard one story of an accident occuring, does one accident really warrant re-writing rules and regulations that could cause serious problems for every TV / Movie crew?
