'Went missing for 20 seconds': US Army on Black Hawk which lost contact near Pentagon
A US Army helicopter briefly lost contact with air traffic controllers near the Pentagon. This incident forced two commercial jets to abort their landings at a Washington airport. The communication loss occurred due to a misplaced antenna. The Army has paused Pentagon flights to address safety concerns. This follows previous close calls and a deadly mid-air collision earlier this year.
