The head of the National Transportation Safety Board has openly criticized U.S. authorities for their inaction leading up to the fatal collision between a U.S. Army helicopter and an American Airlines regional jet on January 29. The tragic incident in Washington led to the loss of 67 lives.
NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy voiced her disapproval on Wednesday, focusing on the Federal Aviation Administration's failure to heed warnings issued by air traffic control personnel.
