新泽西州纽瓦克 8月11日 路透社 —— 美国交通部长肖恩·达菲周二表示,上周一架搭载总统唐纳德·特朗普的军用直升机与里根华盛顿国家机场一架起飞的客机险些相撞后,相关电信问题已被列入待解决事项。
此次事件引发了严重质疑:为何当时民航航班通常应暂停起降的时段,客机仍被允许起飞。

2025年1月曾发生军用直升机与商用客机相撞事故,造成67人死亡,事故后美国联邦航空管理局(FAA)禁止该机场周边出现直升机与客机混合飞行的情况。
“目前存在一些电信方面的问题,”达菲在纽瓦克自由国际机场对记者表示。
“该问题已被升级处理,”他补充道,并称自己正与联邦航空管理局及白宫合作寻求解决方案。
达菲与联邦航空管理局局长布莱恩·贝德福德当天在新泽西州该机场出席活动,活动旨在纪念用于提升跑道安全的新型地面移动雷达的安装。
在一系列系统故障后,联邦航空管理局正斥巨资更换过时的空中交通管制电信基础设施与雷达监视系统,此类故障包括覆盖纽瓦克和华盛顿空域的严重大面积中断,以及2023年一套联邦航空管理局系统故障导致全国范围内短暂停航。

NEWARK, New Jersey, Aug 11 (Reuters) – U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said on Tuesday he is working to fix telecom issues flagged after a military helicopter carrying President Donald Trump last week came too close to a passenger jet departing Reagan Washington National Airport.
The incident raised serious questions about why the passenger airplane was allowed to depart while Marine One was nearby, a time when commercial traffic is typically halted.

Following a January 2025 crash between a military helicopter and a commercial jet that killed 67 people, the Federal Aviation Administration barred mixed helicopter and jet traffic around the airport.
“There have been some telecom issues,” Duffy told reporters at Newark Liberty International Airport.
“That’s been now elevated,” he said, adding that he is working with the FAA on a fix with the White House.
Duffy and FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford spoke to media at the New Jersey airport for an event marking the installation of a new surface movement radar used to improve runway safety.
The FAA is spending billions to replace outdated air traffic control telecom infrastructure and radar surveillance systems after a series of failures including significant serious outages covering Newark and Washington traffic and a 2023 failure of an FAA system that forced a brief nationwide ground stop.
