The past week or two has been a very difficult one for aviation in the United States of America. The nation has been faced with several tragic aviation incidents that have fostered fear regarding some of the country's aging infrastructure and understaffed facilities. On Wednesday, January 29, 2025, an American Eagle flight operated by wholly-owned subsidiary PSA Airlines collided with a Blackhawk helicopter moments before arrival at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport , killing 67 people and becoming the deadliest aviation accident in the United States in 25 years.
