We are learning more after two pilots were killed during a ground collision at LaGuardia Airport late Sunday. Both were operating an Air Canada Express CRJ-900 regional jet that was attempting to land. According to federal investigators, control of the aircraft was transferred from the first officer to the captain just seconds before the collision. LiveNOW’s Shawna Khalafi is speaking with Pilot and CEO of Aero Consulting Experts, Captain Ross “Rusty” Aimer, after a news conference from National Transportation Safety Board Chair Jennifer Homendy. She later confirmed that the first officer had been flying the aircraft before handing control to the captain in the final moments before the LaGuardia crash.
