FAA Opens Investigation After Two More Terrifying Incidents at Reagan National Airport

FAA Opens Investigation After Two More Terrifying Incidents at Reagan National Airport

The notice from Chris Senn, the assistant administrator for government and industry affairs at the FAA, said the Army Black Hawk “took a scenic route around the Pentagon versus proceeding directly from the west to the heliport,” leading to two jets being told to fly around again before coming in for a landing.

Senn said the incident created “loss of separation” events, which means minimum separation standards for aircraft had been violated.
