New York helicopter company shutting down following crash that killed 6


The company that operated the helicopter that crashed into the Hudson River in New York last week, killing all six people on board, will shut down immediately, the Federal Aviation Administration said late Sunday.

New York Helicopter Tours is “shutting down their operations immediately,” the FAA said in a statement on X, adding that it would launch a review of the company’s license and safety records.


The company is already subject to an investigation from the National Transportation Safety Board, which said on Saturday that the helicopter was not fitted with any flight recorders or on-board cameras.

A family of five visiting from Spain including three children — plus the pilot — were killed when the helicopter plunged into the river on Thursday.

They were Agustin Escobar, 49 and Mercè Camprubí Montal, 39, and their three children, Victor, 4, Mercedes, 8, and Agustin, 10. The pilot, 36-year-old Seankese Johnson, was a U.S. Navy veteran who qualified as a commercial pilot in 2023 with more than 800 hours’ flying time.

The company’s website was still online early Monday and has for several days displayed a message to say it is “profoundly saddened by the tragic accident and loss of life that occurred on April 10, 2025, involving one of our helicopters in the Hudson River.”

The message said all press enquiries would be handled by federal agencies. The company’s president, Michael Roth, did not respond to requests for comment from The Associated Press.

Newark airport air traffic controller offers damning assessment: ‘It is not safe. Don’t fly into Newark’

FLIGHT RISK

Airline CEO issues chilling warning about major US airport as traffic controller urges ‘it’s not safe – don’t fly there’

United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby said last Friday that Newark Airport "cannot handle the number of planes that are scheduled to operate there in the weeks and months ahead."

Due to this perceived issue, United Airlines decided to cancel 35 round-trip flights out of Newark Airport per day.

"We feel like there is no other choice in order to protect our customers," Kirby said in a letter to United Airlines passengers.


 
All of this is your fault, Trump voters. You wanted this.
 
Elon demanded head of Federal Aviation Administration be fired a year into his five year term because he was investigating Musk safety violations. There is currently no one in charge of FAA. FAA is under Department of Transportation, headed by former part time Fox commentator and reality TV contestant with no experience in transportation or government.

But he is white and male so obviously merit based! Best people.

A 35 year old US Navy officer falsely told a flight attendant that the person sitting next to him had a bomb. The flight which was getting ready to take off, was stopped on the tarmac after the pilot was notified. It was surrounded by FBI agents. Everyone was deboarded and the plane and passengers checked. There was no bomb. The man was arrested on several charges. The plane took off some 5 hours later.
 
He didn't know that's a crime? Maybe figures Trump will pardon him?
 
And another private Jet crashed into a neighborhood, this time in San Diego.

What the hell is going on?!

"I'm calling for a total and complete shutdown of airplanes entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on."
