President Donald Trump “has been made aware of this situation and tragically it appears that a military helicopter collided with a regional jet,“ Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Fox News.
The Federal Aviation Authority ordered the grounding of all planes at Reagan airport, and Washington’s police said on X that “multiple agencies” were responding to the crash site in the Potomac.
The FAA said a PSA Airlines Bombardier regional jet “collided in midair” with a Sikorsky H-60 helicopter as it approached for landing at Reagan at around 9 pm (0200 GMT). The plane had left from Wichita, Kansas.
On its website, American Airlines said in a statement: “We’re aware of reports that American Eagle flight 5342, operated by PSA, with service from Wichita, Kansas (ICT) to Washington Reagan National Airport (DCA) has been involved in an incident. We will provide information as it becomes available.”
