19 years ago today Jeb Burnside @jebburnside.bsky.social , Dave Higdon, and I @jackhodgson.com recorded the first ever episode of the Uncontrolled Airspace podcast. 764 episode later, we'll get it right eventually.

According to the Associated Press, ATC never advised the RJ crew in the DCA midair that the Blackhawk was nearby. I wonder when it would have made a difference...
