A passenger flight had to break down the landing on Reagan National Airport in Washington DC on the day before American Airlines Flight 5342 bumped into a halfway with a helicopter.

Republic Airways Flight 4514 had to withdraw and make a second approach after a helicopter appeared near his flight route.

That is, according to an audio recording of air traffic control that was recorded and heard on Tuesday by the Washington Post.

Flighttradar data for the flight show that the Windsor Locks plane had traveled to the city in Connecticut and had to get the height dramatically shortly after descending at Reagan National Airport. It eventually landed safely.

The incident is creepy similar to the events of Wednesday evening, when an airplane of an American Airlines in a Black Hawk -helicopter of the US Army hit when the Land Airport entered.

The plane collided with a huge fireball that was visible on dashcams of cars riding on highways that swing along the airport and poured against the river.

Sixty -four people – 60 passengers and four crew members – were on board and all died, officials said.

Three soldiers had been to the helicopter at the time of the incident and had been on a training mission. They also died in the collision that brought the death toll to 67.

Since then, at least 40 bodies from the Potomac River have been drawn after extensive recovery missions by emergency teams.

A provisional report has said that the airport staff at the airport 'was not normal for the time of the day and traffic volume.

Chronic understaffing at Air Traffic Control Towers is nothing new, with only 19 working at DC in 2023 – but the report thought it was complicated that night.
