The world of aircraft is struggling to understand how the deadly air collision between the passenger plan and military helicopter occurred “the most controlled air space in the world”.
The US Black Army Hawk helicopter collided with three crew with an American Airlines jet that carried 64 people when the passenger planes were the territories of Washington National Airport.
Two planes were picked up on Wednesday night on freezing potomac river.
The exact cause of the accident is unknown.
Officials will release a preliminary report within 30 days, depending on the national transport safety committee (NTSB), the research leader.
Todd InMan, on the five-member NTSB Committee, has not recovered the flight data recorders yet – known as black boxes, but they can be recovered from the water.
The space above the Columbia district is very limited to protecting both national security and buildings based on the U.S. government.
The commercial aircraft prevented Pentagon, the White House and other historical milestones.
However, the field has managed a large number of lawsuits related to Jim Brachle Jim Brachle, Jets and Reagan airports, told BBC.
There is also trade traffic but also private aircraft and helicopters that fly around the city, often leading higher officials and politicians among sensitive locations.
“You entered these narrow paths and you get the accumulation and additional planes, so you’re putting a lot of planes in a really limited space,” he said.
Jeff Guzzzti, a former aircraft accident researcher for federal administrations (FAA) and NTSB, BBC Newshour said that the helicopter was in communication with the control tower before the accident. The Air Traffic Controller stressed the American Helicopterian flight, he said.
“Helicopter pilot stated that he distinguished from sight, and then the accident happened from there, so many questions that the helicopter saw exactly what he saw?” He said from Guzzet.
Inman with NTSB said DC also “a unique environment” due to the specific areas of helicopter and flying.
“If you look at the DC, you see a lot of helicopters in this area, so it’s a very well-defined system,” he said.
Mr. Inman could not give any specifications about the height of the helicopter before colliding American airlines flights.
Mr. Brachle, Jets and Reagan told BBC, has managed many issues related to airports.
“It’s really special about Readgan. It is located in the river. There is also a helicopter route that crosses through this last approach and is 200 meters or below,” he said.
Brachle said it crosses two helicopters and aircraft approaches.
“You are putting two different planes in almost a small space that has no distinction,” he said. “If you get that maybe it’s a little low, it’s a little very high, you finish the same place.”
Aircraft consultants Philip Butterworth-Hayes said the event was happened in the “Nexus of different aviation systems, including civil and military systems, as well as specific airport.
“Here you are on the border of three or four aircraft systems, and most accidents are the limits that will happen,” he added.
But UK planes John Strickland said the amount of the commercial air in the area could not be completely explained why the dead collision would happen.
Near the city center of Washington National, he warned that there is an international door, Washington, and Baltimore Airport is also farther away.
“The distribution must be maintained in traffic flows. It is like that we have in London, where you need to manage traffic flows between Heathrow, Stansted, Gatwick and London.
“So DC is not in that sense in London or New York … it’s not entirely common.”
Butterworth-Hayes followed: “The world’s air space is most controlled. You have a US government and civil system – Ronald Reagan Airport also owns government, very little. It is very little.
“It’s really safest, and it should be the world air field, seeing the number of social security and security institutions that work in this field.”
The last accident was a US commercial accident in February 2009. Officers and experts have stressed that this type of event is very too little due to all kinds of security restrictions.
CBS News showed two aircraft that can be seen from the Air Traffic Control Source, BBC’s US partners, clearly seen in radar systems available for crash.
The audio equipped by BBC news appears to be in contact with airport control at the airport.
The helicopter was asked if the passenger plane was “sight” and “passing behind.” In the audio in the audio, controllers realize that there was a collision and can be heard in the air directing to airports.
Mr. Butterworth-Hayes said that a collision around the air requires several things to go wrong.
He said to fly in the Civil Air Space, military helicopter should be equipped with transparent warning about aircraft.
This means that the two planes had to be able to see each other, and also the instructions for air traffic control and plane protection safety would be separated from each other.
“This time, you have two different systems and they could both separate these aircraft.”
Black Hawk Helicopter B Company, 12. It was part of the aircraft battalion. Fort Belvoir, he left the Virginia military base and took part in a training exercise.
The Secretary of Pete Hegseth defense said the helicopter crew was “quite experienced” and participated in a year’s night flight training session.
By talking to CNN, Cedric Leighton – Uninstalled Air Force – said it was normal to use the tools needed to work at night at night, especially the tools needed to fly in the dark.
One of the tasks of the unit is to transport higher workers around the capital, though there was no one while the boat was a training flight.
The pilot of the unit is expected to be skilled at DC busy airport and “train to avoid such events,”.
Mr. Butterworth-Hayes said that experienced riders would only get to the busy section of the air space.
“Whether training for new systems or equipment, the pilot activated by the helicopter and had all the security systems, or whether they were testing a new procedure or a new route.”
