I am a resident in Virginia, the accident occurred near National Harbor and DCA Airport. I’ve been to the National Harbor, and you can see DCA from the pier. Somewhere in 1982, an Air Florida plane crashed due to icing. Rest in peace 67 people.

Aviation is getting wild ever since Christmas 2024. I am a resident in Virginia and on January 30, 2025, a plane crash occurred where I usually visit, Washington DC. It occurred when an American Airlines plane collided with a Black Hawk helicopter. 67 people died in the crash. The crash occurred near DCA Airport and National Harbor. I visited National Harbor months before the crash. This led to the closing of the pier due to remains of the plane crash. RIP 67 people.
