as posted by the channelThe collision between an American Airlines Group Inc. regional jet and a military helicopter near Ronald Reagan airport in Washington left no survivors on board the two aircraft, authorities said, making it one of the most deadly US air disasters in decades and an early test for President Donald Trump’s administration in his second week in office. #planecrash #trump #americanairlines #washington #dc #worldnews #disaster
American Flight 5342 that had come in from Wichita, Kansas, with 60 passengers and four crew hit a Sikorsky H-60 Black Hawk helicopter with three military personnel on board while approaching the runway just before 9 p.m. local time on Wednesday. Rescue crews worked through the night to retrieve any survivors, but by early morning their mission had turned into a salvage operation, they said at a press briefing at the airport.
“At this point, we don’t believe that there are any survivors from this accident,” Fire and Emergency Medical Services Chief John Donnelly said. “These responders found extremely frigid conditions. They found heavy wind. They found ice on the water, and they’ve operated all night in those conditions.”
The collision adds to a growing number of deadly aviation accidents over the past year, following an extended period of practically no fatalities in the civil aviation industry.
