I recorded the approach of American Airlines flight 5342, which seemed to sidestep to runway 13 and collided with a helicopter near the Potomac. The east bank is a known helicopter route, mainly for police and military use. A webcam captured an explosion mid-air, and initial reports indicate that PSA Airlines 5342 collided with an Army transport helicopter. I also have audio from the DCA tower during the incident, where traffic advisories were given. A detailed thread discusses the helicopter's tracking and its visibility on the PSA's traffic screen.

@bricaul - Brian McGuigan

.@flightradar24 recording as #AA5342 approached. Looks like another American flight was just ahead of them on final to runway 1. Possible 5342 sidestepped to runway 13, got low, and collided with a helicopter flying low on the east bank of the Potomac. The helicopter is not on ADSB.

@bricaul - Brian McGuigan

It is worth noting that – without casting any blame – the east bank of the Potomac is a published helicopter route that is generally only used by police and military helicopters given the restricted airspace. Not an unusual location for a police helicopter to be.

Video Transcript AI Summary
Gusty winds are hampering recovery efforts in the Potomac River after a tragic collision. An Army Blackhawk helicopter on a training mission collided with an American Airlines flight, killing all 67 on board. The bodies of both Black Hawk pilots have been recovered. The NTSB is investigating, revealing the commercial jet was operating at 325 feet just before the crash. The victims include the airline passengers and crew, as well as the three soldiers aboard the helicopter: Ryan Austin O'Hara, Andrew Lloyd Eaves, and Rebecca Lobach. Air traffic control instructed the jet to land on a shorter runway and alerted the Black Hawk to the plane's approach. The NTSB interviewed the air traffic controller involved. Investigators hope the black boxes reveal critical information about the final moments in both cockpits, specifically if the pilots were aware of the impending collision and if there was any confusion.

That Black Hawk helicopter now also making its way up the Potomac River. At 08:46, two minutes before the collision, air traffic control telling the helicopter about the American Airlines plane coming in for a landing from the south on Runway 33. At roughly 08:48, asking the Black Hawk pilots to again confirm they see the jet. You can hear the alarm go off as they ask the Black Hawk, do you see that jet? Speaker 2: F25G, this is RJ in flight. F25FOn is RJ. This club has a aircraft inside. Chris was separate separate. Speaker 1: Seconds later, the collision. Speaker 2: 320. 1 7. The Speaker 1: NTSB saying they interviewed the air traffic controller heard in the final seconds leading up to the worst plane crash in decades. The FAA saying in a statement that Reagan National Airport has 25 air traffic controllers with three more in training with a full staff of 28. And this video from 2022, our affiliate WJLA speaking with sisters, 11 year old, Alidia, and 14 year old, Everly Livingston. How much fun do you have here with your sister? Speaker 2: A lot. It's really fun to have a sister to skate with. Speaker 1: Both of those little girls losing their lives with their parents, Donna and Peter. Speaker 0: Just so heartbreaking. Gio Benitez joins us now from Washington. And Gio, we know the black boxes for both the plane and helicopter have all been recovered. What are investigators hoping that they reveal? Speaker 1: Well, Lindsay, the most critical will be the voices. What were those final like in both cockpits? In the airplane, for example, did they even know that the helicopter was heading right toward them? And in the helicopter, did they know that they were looking at the right plane or the wrong plane? Was there any confusion at all? These are the critical questions tonight, Speaker 2: Lindsay. Speaker 0: Gio, thank you.
