Horror CCTV from the Kennedy Center showed the moment the aircraft burst into flames.
All 64 people onboard – 60 passengers and four crew – are feared dead.
A distressed husband, whose 26-year-old wife was on the plane said his last contact with his wife was just a few minutes before the crash.
Hamaad Raza told WUSA from near Reagan National Airport: “She texted me that they were landing in 20 minutes.”
He then showed undelivered messages on his phone saying “That’s when I realized something was up.”
He added: “I’m just praying that someone is pulling her out of the river right now. That’s all I can pray for.”
He said his wife had gone to Wichita for work but admitted she never felt comfortable flying.
The man alongside another family member are desperately waiting for updates at Terminal 2 at Reagan Airport.
The airport is set to remain closed until at least 11am.
The tragedy happened on Wednesday night when American Eagle Flight 5342 from Kansas was approaching Runway 33 at Ronald Reagan International Airport when it crashed with a US Army Black Hawk helicopter.
Horror CCTV from the Kennedy Center showed the moment the aircraft burst into flames after crashing in the air.
Officials said there are “many, many, many” people dead, but have not confirmed the tragic toll.
A law enforcement source told CBS that at least 19 bodies have been pulled from the river so far.
It comes as…
- Trump says crash ‘should have been prevented’
- All 64 on board feared dead on plane
- CCTV reveals moment of crash
- Chilling audio reveals final moments of plane
- World champion figure skaters ‘were on board’
- Husband reveals wife’s final text from doomed jet
- Rescue efforts hampered by freezing & dark conditions
Emergency services are on the scene frantically scouring for survivors in the freezing waters.
The airport’s fire chief saying the operation will last “many hours”.
Chilling audio from air traffic control has revealed the final communications between the aircraft and air traffic control.
Flight tracking data appears to show the plane was at an approximate altitude of 300ft when it crashed.
Less than 30 seconds before the crash, one controller asked the helicopter if it could see the plane.
The controller made another call to the chopper just moments later, saying: “PAT 25 pass behind the CRJ.”
But seconds later, the plane and helicopter crashed.
The doomed plane was packed with figure skaters including former champion figure skaters Yevgenia Shishkova and Vadim Naumov.
How common are domestic flights in the US?
by Georgie English, Foreign News Reporter
EVERY single day the Federal Aviation Administration oversees 45,000 flights with almost three million passengers on board
This covers a huge 29 million square miles of airspace from all over the US.
At peak times there can even be up to 5,400 aircraft in the sky at any moment – creating a mammoth task for aviation experts and air traffic controllers to maintain safety amongst all of them.
This means that any wrong call or misstep from either flight crew or controllers can result in a fatal tragedy.
A shortage of air traffic controllers in the past has caused delayed flights and raised a number of safety concerns.
Washington DC’s airspace in particular is extremely busy at peak times.
There have been several near-miss incidents at Reagan National Airport in recent years including a near-collision in May 2024 between an American Airlines jet and a small plane.
A similar catastrophe almost occurred a month earlier between a Southwest and JetBlue flight.
Reagan National also features a much shorter runway than many others with over 90 per cent of outgoing and in-going flights using the main one.
This makes it the busiest single runway in the US with over 800 takeoffs and landings each day – or one every minute for much of the day.
USA Figure Skating said several members of its skating community were also on board.
It said that the athletes, coaches and relatives were travelling back home from a development camp held in Wichita, Kansas.
It said: “We are devastated by this unspeakable tragedy and hold the victims’ families closely in our hearts.
“We will continue to monitor the situation and will release more information as it becomes available.”
The skaters were a part of the National Development Team and had competed at the US Figure Skating Championships that was held between January 20 to 26 in Wichita, Kansas.
Meanwhile President Trump has questioned how the smash happened on a “clear night”.
He wrote on Truth Social: “The airplane was on a perfect and routine line of approach to the airport.
“The helicopter was going straight at the airplane for an extended period of time.
“It is a CLEAR NIGHT, the lights on the plane were blazing, why didn’t the helicopter go up or down, or turn.
“Why didn’t the control tower tell the helicopter what to do instead of asking if they saw the plane.
“This is a bad situation that looks like it should have been prevented. NOT GOOD!!!”

THE Love Island villa has been ripped apart after the latest bombshell arrivals stole two islanders.
In drama-filled scenes, Sammy Root and Danielle Sellers made bold choices and a fan favourite couple was separated.
The islanders were summoned to the fire pit and told it was time for Sammy and Danielle to couple up.
The ultimatum sent shockwaves through the villa and the newbies faced scrutiny from their co-stars.
A source said: “Sammy and Danielle were shocked to receive the text telling them it was time to steal a partner and couple up because they’d barely had any time to make their decision since the four-way Hideaway sleepover.
“But that didn’t stop them making brave choices.
“Their decisions had everyone feeling a certain type of way.”
There could be fireworks ahead if last night’s show was anything to go by.
The new arrivals got to spend the night in the Hideaway with islanders of their choosing.
Danielle picked Curtis Pritchard, which left his partner Ekin-Su Culculoglu furious, while Sammy chose Elma Pazar.
Despite insisting that he was “closed off” with Ekin, he quickly had his head turned and told her that he owed it to himself to get to know Danielle.
After their night in the Hideaway, Elma revealed that Curtis had “held hands” with Danielle, which left Ekin panicking.
She pulled him for a chat and quizzed him on it, asking: “No hand touching in the morning?”
A confused Curtis replied: “No.”
Ekin explained: “Elma said there sort of ‘your hand on her hand’.”
Curtis denied it and said: “They were asking if I was ‘closed off’ and I said ‘yeah’. I’m sorry you’re feeling upset, we had a chat, she’s a grounded nice person.”
A furious Ekin hit back: “I don’t give a f*** if the girl is a good, or a nice, or wonderful person. Or if you have compatibility, I don’t give a f***.”
Curtis tried to reassure her, saying: “My eyes are set on what we have.”
