Latest investigation details released by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) on Tuesday revealed that the military Black Hawk helicopter with three U.S. Army airmen on board was flying at an altitude of around 91 meters, when it collided with the passenger jet midair near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport last Wednesday.
According to the NTSB last Saturday, the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder were recovered from the American Airlines regional jet by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) late on Thursday afternoon.
It also said that the regional jet, which had departed from Wichita, Kansas, with 60 passengers and four crew members on board, was at around 99 meters when the collision occurred, after the two devices were analyzed by a working group.
The CCTV correspondent reported earlier on Tuesday that the remains of all 67 individuals who died in the aircraft collision have been recovered by rescue teams, while 66 of the remains have been identified.
The U.S. media of ABC News reported on the same day that the U.S. Unified Command said its crews were still working to clear wreckage, including large pieces of the plane from the Potomac River, and large lifts continued through Tuesday evening.
It added that operations would then shift to recovering wreckage from the Black Hawk helicopter.
