Media reports now indicate there are likely no survivors after an American Eagle flight crashed while landing at Reagan National.

Reports indicate the military chopper traveled into the path of AA 5342. The plane had 60 passengers and four crew members on board.

The military helicopter had a crew of three. The crash looks to be the deadliest commercial air disaster in the United States in 15 years.
