Final conversation between pilot and controller | Video
As the commercial jet was approaching runway for landing, the air traffic controllers asked jet if could land on the shorter Runway 33 at Reagan National and the pilots said they were able, reported AFP.
Controllers then cleared the plane to land on Runway 33. Flight tracking sites showed the plane adjust its approach to the new runway.
Less than 30 seconds before the crash, an air traffic controller asked the helicopter if it had the arriving plane in sight.
The controller made another radio call to the helicopter moments later: “PAT 25 pass behind the CRJ.” Seconds after that, the two aircraft collided.
A video shared by Dan News on X, shared a video of final conversation between pilot and traffic controller. At the end of the video, pilot can be heard as saying, “ I need to land immediately”.
