Trump Blames Clear Night for Possible Prevention of Deadly Reagan National Helicopter Crash
President Donald Trump said the Reagan National Airport crash that killed 27 people could have been prevented due to clear night conditions at the time of the incident.
President Donald Trump on Wednesday said a helicopter crash that occurred at Reagan National Airport could have been prevented and criticized the Federal Aviation Administration for what he called 'bad decision-making.' The incident involved an Army Black Hawk helicopter colliding with an American Airlines jet near the airport late on Tuesday night, resulting in one of the worst aviation accidents in US history. Trump expressed his condolences to the victims' families but also questioned how such a tragedy could have occurred given the 'great' safety record of the military and major airlines.
