The Federal Aviation Administration plans to announce that it reduces the arrival of aircraft at Washington Rigan National Airport to treat safety concerns after a deadly collision between a helicopter and AL.O has killed 67 people, according to an email that Reuters saw.
The Federal Aviation Administration told airlines late on Wednesday that the reduction of the maximum rate from 28 to 26 mentioned per hour will reduce the risks, but also increases the delay from 40 minutes to 50 minutes. E -mail said that investigators of the Board of Directors of the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Council “expressed concern about the tower employees in the service, who have an increase in the level of tension during the front row to recover accidents.”

The email added that reducing the rate from 28 to 26 “will reduce the risks and allow a small space for additional coordination.” It is not clear whether the reduction will force airlines to cancel some flights.
NTSB and FAA surrounded the Senate Trade Committee members on Thursday about the investigation. A spokesman for the Federal Aviation Administration did not immediately comment on the time when it would face restrictions, but noticed that it slows the traffic inside and outside Reagan due to weather conditions and recovery efforts in the area.

In the aftermath of the accident, the Federal Aviation Administration has imposed large restrictions on helicopters around Reagan National until at least February and two of the least used corridors remain closed. When police, medical, or presidential helicopters have to use airspace, civil aircraft are not allowed to be in the same area, according to a consultant in the Federal Aviation Administration.
US Transport Minister Sean Dove He said on Wednesday that he reconsidates the rules that allowed air traffic control supervisors to reduce employees before a deadly collision.
Duffy noted that before the collapse, two monitoring sites of the aircraft aircraft and aircraft aircraft were merged.
“We will withdraw this authority to make sure that we have the correct policies inside our towers to ensure that you are flying safely.”
Duffy is also planning to advertise in the coming days to increase more training training and applicants. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is estimated at about 3,000 console units less than the levels of employment, and almost all control towers face employment problems.
