The crash investigation has noted that that airport gets so many collision alerts that they are largely ignored anyway.

The NTSB preliminary report should be out soon. There was a lots of messed up stuff going on there. Most of it traffic related.

Leon has already assigned his finest crew to the case: Joe Rogan, Hulk Hogan, and Ron Jeremy under the direction of Kristi Noem and Linda McMahon.

It's just the UFOs. No biggy. They are always up there hovering over DC keeping an eye on things. Their cloaking devices usually work better than that. They may need to be recalibrated. Maybe Elmo can help them.

Fire some more air traffic controllers.

That'll fix it.
