An investigation is currently underway following a midair collision at Reagan National Airport. The newly sworn-in transportation secretary, Sean Duffy, expressed his surprise at facing a major crisis just hours into his new role.
In a social media post, Duffy mentioned that while this was not the expected start to his tenure, he believes in being where he is meant to be. He also shared that he has met with the families of the victims of the plane crash and intends to visit the Federal Aviation Administration command center and recovery hangar.
