The private airplane carrying three people from the U.S. state of Pennsylvania collided in ideal flying conditions on Saturday about 1,000 feet (some 304.8 meters) over the Hudson River with a sightseeing helicopter carrying a pilot and five Italian tourists.

The Hudson River air corridor is not controlled by air traffic controllers. It is up to pilots to avoid collisions.
However, National Transportation Safety Board investigators have been questioning air traffic controllers, reviewing air traffic control radio and radar recordings and appealing to the public for photographs and witnesses of the collision.
Investigators said Teterboro Airport in New Jersey, where the airplane began its ill-fated flight, gave the airplane pilot a radio handoff to Newark Liberty International Airport but the pilot never contacted Newark.
