This development comes weeks after an American Airlines jet collided with a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, killing 67 people. The airline was returning from Wichita, Kansas, and was carrying figure skaters and members of their families.
The incident sparked a national conversation about issues with the air traffic control system. It was later revealed that the crash could have been due to a communication error, but the authorities are still investigating the matter.
🟥 Reports from briefings confirming the Black Hawk was outside its flight path and above 200-ft limit when it crashed with the American airliner. The pilot was warned by ATC, they were too close, but collided anyway, investigations continue into recklessness protocol failures. pic.twitter.com/PGuFIQWkto
