flag Senators push to fix NDAA loophole allowing untracked military helicopters in D.C. airspace after deadly 2025 crash.

flag Senators from both parties are pushing for changes to the National Defense Authorization Act after concerns that it would allow military helicopters to operate in Washington, D.C. airspace without ADS-B tracking, a move critics say reverses vital safety reforms following a January 2025 midair collision that killed 67 people. flag The NTSB and aviation safety advocates warn the provision undermines public safety, calling it a dangerous rollback. flag Senators Maria Cantwell and Ted Cruz have introduced amendments requiring all aircraft, including military ones, to use full ADS-B systems, while Senate leadership suggests fast-tracking alternative safety legislation. flag The bill’s fate remains uncertain as Congress heads into a holiday break.
