Two U.S. House committees on Thursday are set to consider sweeping aviation safety reform legislation to address 50 recommendations issued after a January 2025 collision between an American Airlines (AAL.O) regional jet and an Army Black Hawk helicopter that killed 67 people.
The National Transportation Safety Board said in an analysis seen by Reuters that the revised ALERT Act largely requires implementation of its recommendations made after its year-long investigation.
The bill establishes requirements for equipping collision mitigation technologies for airplanes and helicopters and aims to address deficiencies in the FAA's safety culture, enhance air traffic control training and procedures, and strengthen safety of airspace around Reagan Washington National Airport where the fatal collision occurred last year.
