Figure skaters and coaches returning from the U.S. national championships were aboard the American Airlines flight that collided with a Black Hawk helicopter Wednesday.

The fatal D.C. plane crash has renewed focus on the recent history of crashes and near misses in U.S. airspace.

Before Wednesday’s crash near Washington, D.C., there had not been a fatal collision involving a commercial aircraft in the United States since 2009.

Fatal crashes of commercial aircraft in the U.S. have become a rarity. The deadliest recent crash was in 2009 near Buffalo, New York. All 45 passengers and the four crew members were killed when the Bombardier DHC-8 propeller plane crashed into a house.
