WASHINGTON—The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on July 31 defended the staffing levels for air traffic controllers at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport when an Army helicopter collided with a commercial jet in January, while concerns were raised by an agency contractor at a hearing.
National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) investigators probed that issue on Thursday, on the second day of their fact-finding hearing into the deadliest crash in American aviation since November 2001.
