In just one week at the end of January 2025, a Black Hawk helicopter and an American Airlines flight collided near Washington D.C. Days later, a medical jet transporting a child patient crashed in Northeast Philadelphia. Adding to these tragedies, an Air India flight crashed into a medical college hostel in Ahmedabad, India, on June 12, 2025.
