On Wednesday night, a US Army helicopter collided with American Airlines flight 5342, killing three crew members and 64 passengers. The helicopter was part of a White House evacuation plan training exercise. While social media speculated it was related to a Continuity of Government (COG) mission, the Army confirmed it was a training event. The identities of two crew members were released, but the name of the third, a female co-pilot, was withheld at her family’s request. The crash, near Ronald Reagan National Airport, was caused by air traffic controller shortages. Both planes crashed into the Potomac River, and black boxes from both aircraft were recovered.
