A recent tragedy at Reagan National Airport has led to some big changes. The Federal Aviation Administration has decided to slow down the number of flights coming into the airport. Instead of 28, they are now allowing only 26 flights per hour to land. This comes after a deadly collision between a small passenger jet and an Army helicopter.

The crash has raised serious questions about safety at the airport. Helicopter flights have been restricted indefinitely. Local officials and pilots have been warning for years that the airspace at the airport is very crowded. Reagan National Airport has the busiest main runway in the United States, with over 800 takeoffs and landings each day. The runway is also shorter than most, making it tricky for pilots to land safely. And pilots have to avoid military and Coast Guard helicopters.

Experts have always known that the airspace over Reagan National Airport is crowded. But no one expected that it would lead to a crash. The biggest concern now is the safety of other flights and passengers. The FAA is trying to address these concerns by slowing down the traffic. But will this be enough to ensure safety? Only time will tell.
