Army Chopper in Fatal D.C. Midair Crash Was Flying Too High, NTSB Finds

As someone who travels through Reagan National frequently, this story gave me chills. It’s terrifying to hear how many near misses happened before this tragic crash and that flawed altimeters and poor communication protocols played a role. It’s especially heartbreaking that skaters and kids were among the victims.


Have you ever flown into DCA and noticed how tight the airspace feels? I wonder how many times we’ve unknowingly come close to disaster. What are your thoughts on stricter FAA oversight or the proposed changes like mandatory ADS-B In tech?
