Radar footage leading up to the final moments of American Airlines Flight AA5342 can now be seen online.
The United States experienced another massive tragedy this week as a military Black Hawk helicopter collided with the aforementioned passenger flight on Wednesday night, killing over 60 people.
Flight AA5342 was coming in from Wichita, Kansas when it got hit by the Army craft and plunged into the Potomac River near the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
The radar footage below shows the American Airlines jet flying over the river and reaching the airport before turning back and stopping over the body of water, an indication that it went down.
