Sixty-four people aboard a commercial airliner died Wednesday night after it collided with a military helicopter midair near Reagan Washington National Airport. Both the American Eagle jet and Army Black Hawk are in the Potomac River.

Grainy video footage taken in the dark of night, seemingly by an airport CCTV camera, appears to capture the moment American Airlines Flight 5342 was in collision with a U.S.

The Army Black Hawk helicopter that collided with an American Airlines commuter plane near Reagan Washington National Airport in Virginia Wednesday was on a “training flight” when they crashed into the Potomac River, according to the military service branch.
