According to a statement shared on X by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), a PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700 regional jet was approaching Runway 33 at the airport when it collided with a Sikorsky H-60 helicopter in mid-air.

“PSA was operating as Flight 5342 for American Airlines,” adds the FAA. The organization also clarified that the plane was departing from Wichita, Kansas.

While the FAA is assisting with the investigation into the crash, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) will lead the inquiry. The aviation administration also confirmed that they will be providing the public with continuous updates as more information becomes available.

In his first message, Trump stated that the PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700 regional jet was on a routine and precise approach to the airport.

He then noted how the helicopter that the plane collided with had been headed straight at the aircraft for a long period.

“It is a CLEAR NIGHT, the lights on the plane were blazing, why didn’t the helicopter go up or down, or turn. Why didn’t the control tower tell the helicopter what to do instead of asking if they saw the plane [sic],” penned Trump.
