SpaceX engineers have already descended on the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to help modernize air traffic control.
Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy said in a post to X on Wednesday that the deadly Jan. 29 crash between an Army Black Hawk helicopter and an American Airlines flight landing at Reagan airport in Washington, D.C., served as "a heartbreaking wake-up call that improvements must be made."
"This is why I've enlisted the brightest minds, including SpaceX engineers, to help upgrade our aviation system," Duffy wrote. "I am fully committed to transportation excellence, as well as transparency and honesty with the public."
