American Airlines Flight 5342 (PSA Airlines) - Unber43 - 30 Jan 2025
Very sad news coming out of DCA (Ronald Reagan Airport) with a ERJ-145 and a Blackhawk Helicopter colliding seconds after ATC instructed flight 5342 from Wichita Kanas, to change runways and land on runway 33 (shortest runway at DCA) commonly used for Embraer Jets.
With these events the response was quick and urgent however it was soon seen as a recovery incident not a rescue operation, with ambulance staying unmoved for hours as the search went on. Companies, People, Groups give there thoughts to the incident. However one man was more focused on the blame of Biden, Obama, Butigeig, Diversity, not the cuts he just forced through within his first 10 days in office (this is going to be a long 4 years), incuding marching out a senior office in FAA as he had fined SpaceX in the years previous, or the firing of 100 safety personal.
Just coming out that the DCA ATC Tower only had 1 operator missing two more, was this down to the cuts which Trump imposed (Ofc not, nothings his fault its anyone else)
Very Sad day for America, the deadliest crash in over 20 years, its a time to come together but not to blame, or suggest conspiracy theories.
So lets, let the NTSB do its job and hope it never happens again. 67 PEOPLE DIED they were everyone's VIP.
