[quote=Anonymous]https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/ntsb-to-give-update-on-deadly-midair-crash-near-dca-heres-whats-known-so-far/3845340/ [quote]NTSB Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy gave the update to reporters Tuesday as the agency continues to investigate the Jan. 29 collision between an American Airlines passenger jet and an Army helicopter. Both plunged into the Potomac River, killing all 67 people aboard. Homendy said investigators found separation distances between helicopters on what's known as "Route 4" and planes landing on DCA runway 33 were too close and posed an "intolerable risk" to aviation safety.

That didn't occur, which is why we're taking action today. But unfortunately, people lost lives, and loved ones are grieving," Homendy said.[/quote][/quote]
