Another aircraft accident has come in the US. A small aircraft crashed 30 seconds after flying in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, causing the flames to rise. There were two people in the aircraft, who are feared to be killed. State Governor Josh Shapiro informed about the incident and said that relief and rescue work is going on. The accident occurred at a distance of 4.8 km from Northeast Philadelphia Airport. In the pictures obtained from the accident site, some houses also saw fire. The fire department is trying to control the fire.
Another aircraft accident in the US recently caught everyone’s attention, which is considered to be the deadliest in the last 25 years. The incident occurred on Wednesday night when the American Airlines flight 5342 collided with the army helicopter on reaching the airport. 67 people have been killed in this collision near Ronald Reagan National Airport. So far more than 40 bodies have been recovered. The investigation of the accident may take several months, and the federal investigators have not speculated about the reasons for this.
US President Donald Trump said that the army helicopter was flying at a high altitude at the time of the accident. Trump said in a post on his social media platform, “It was more than the 200 -foot range, and it is not much complicated to understand it.” The comment came on the day when he questioned the collision in the air of commercial aircraft and helicopter. Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth also said that height probably caused the accident. He also emphasized the importance of continuity of training of the US Army. However, the black box of the helicopter has not yet been recovered.
