AI Summary:
National Transportation Safety Board recovered flight data and cockpit voice recorders from the American Airlines jet that collided with a Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter. NTSB Chairman Jennifer Homendy earlier told reporters that the agency would “leave no stone unturned” in its investigation into the accident. The announcement comes after US President Donald Trump drew ire for claiming that diversity, equity and inclusion policies (DEI) may have been to blame for the disaster. Air traffic controllers asked the pilots if they could land on Runway 33. The crash was the first deadly incident involving a US commercial airline since 2009. Authorities have so far recovered about 40 bodies from the Potomac River.
