Kobe Bryant Helicopter Crash Investigation - ATC and the FAA Screwed Up Big Time | Peter Trono

In this podcast, I welcome Peter Trono to the studio to discuss the massive mistake by air traffic control (ATC) and the FAA, that very well may have prevented the fateful helicopter crash that killed Kobe Bryant, his daughter, and 7 other people, on January 26, 2020. Peter is a subject matter expert who has spent his entire career as a tower controller, air traffic controller, and accident investigator. Peter drops a serious bombshell that has not been discussed by the mainstream media and was completely omitted from the NTSB investigation.
