That's why I don't understand all the fuzz about ADS-B in the UH60. TCAS in the CRJ worked as designed, including RA inhibit down low.
It was the last chance to avert this accident.
the CRJ crew getting a visual on the UH60 some seconds earlier could have saved them as well, one of many items on the 'could have saved them' list.
I've wondered a couple of times, what if.... the CRJ crew had failed to spot the UH60 all together. Now a left-banking evasive manoeuver was started, and only the left wing was substantially shredded by the rotor.
If they would has kept wings level, maybe both wings would have narrowly escaped major damage, only MLG and belly at risk of the main rotor.
But it all doesn't matter, really. 'Fate is the hunter' and they got caught.
