Summary
An American Airlines jet and a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter collided midair near Reagan National Airport, killing at least 18 people.
Trump initially expressed condolences but later questioned why the air traffic control tower or helicopter pilot didn’t prevent the crash.
The FAA identified the plane as a PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700.
A Kennedy Center webcam captured the collision, and investigations are ongoing.
CNN’s Pete Muntean called the incident stunning, noting its proximity to a military base.
