Trump's helicopter had 'loss of separation' with passenger jet near Washington airport
特朗普所乘直升机一度与客机距离过近 出现"间隔丧失"
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration confirmed that the Marine One helicopter carrying President Trump came dangerously close to a departing passenger jet from Reagan National Airport on August 4. The FAA described the incident as a 'loss of separation,' meaning both aircraft were simultaneously below minimum safe distances. Both aircraft landed safely, and the National Transportation Safety Board is reviewing the incident to decide on a formal investigation.
