Summary
An American Airlines regional jet carrying 64 people collided midair with a Sikorsky H-60 military helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on Wednesday night.
The PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700 was on approach from Wichita when the crash occurred around 9 p.m. ET. At least one aircraft ended up in the Potomac River, prompting a major emergency response.
The FAA closed the airport, and the NTSB is leading the investigation.
Agreed that press conference and the far away footage not good. River is very cold and icy as well
That area is not very windy but 32-34F which is pretty cold. Not good.
