Telugunadu Posted January 30 Author Posted January 30 No survivors expected after midair collision between passenger jet and Army helicopter. No survivors likely: No one is believed to have survived the midair collision between an American Airlines jet plane and a US Army Black Hawk helicopter last night in the Washington, DC, area, the fire chief said Thursday. President Donald Trump is expected to address the tragedy this morning at the White House Briefing Room. • Recovery operation: Emergency authorities have switched to “recovery effort” after 28 bodies have so far been found, officials said. Officials are confident they will recover the bodies of those killed in the collision. The aircraft, flying from Wichita, Kansas, was carrying 64 people, while three soldiers were aboard the helicopter. • NTSB leading investigation: The National Transportation Safety Board is leading the investigation. American Airlines said the two pilots aboard Flight 5342 were experienced in complex commercial flight, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the helicopter was on an annual proficiency training flight. • Athletes on board: Several members of the figure skating community were aboard the jet, US Figure Skating said. Separately, Russia’s state news agency said two world-champion Russian figure skaters were on the plane. chanu@ntrfan 1

War zone ready cheyalante real life scenarios tho train chestharu.. but there is a altitude limit for air force.. so not sure what went wrong there.. did heli climbed up altitude or Passenger plane changed the course.. also can't rule out ATC mistake..

Yes, the passenger plane was initially given permission to land on Runway 1 and later changed to Runway 33.

Telugunadu Posted February 1 Author Posted February 1 Watch the above video. It clearly explains how the tragedy happened.
