I knew it couldn’t last forever, but it’s still a shame the streak has ended. A CRJ700 operated by PSA for American Airlines collided with a Black Hawk while landing at Reagan National Airport. Sixty-four people were on the plane and 3 on the helicopter.

Edit: Corrected name on Black Hawk from one word to two

Sixty-four people were on the plane and 3 on the helicopter.

And every single one is dead or presumed dead 😥
