Deadly DC plane crash was years in the making, air traffic manager tells NTSB
During the hearings, the NTSB was told that the Army helicopter never heard the command from the air traffic controller to "pass behind the CRJ" as the transmission was stepped on.

At their closest points, helicopters and planes routinely flew within 75 feet near the airport, according to the NTSB.
