The search for survivors of a Wednesday night plane crash outside Washington, DC, has turned into a recovery operation, with authorities saying that all 64 people believed on board the American Airlines flight from Kansas were killed just before landing.
Around 9 p.m. local time, video shows that a U.S. Army helicopter collided in midair with the full-capacity passenger jet as it descended in Arlington, Virginia. The plane subsequently crashed into the Potomac River, breaking into three parts. First responders, dealing with icy conditions and low visibility, have since recovered more than two dozen bodies, including one of the three military personnel believed to have been on board the Black Hawk helicopter.
