Plane collides with Blackhawk helicopter Washington DC

So sad and tragic as there were juvenile figure skating athletes, their coaches and family on that passenger plane and I would imagine there were young people being trained on the military craft. There needs to be a thorough investigation.

As more information is relayed on the news, it was mentioned that this airport and surrounding skies are extremely busy. Now with that knowledge does it not bring up the question as to how this accident could have happened knowing it is one of the busiest, therefore one would assume the proper safety measures are in place?

The military aircraft was supposedly on a training mission with three trainees, could the pilot's attention not have been completely focused on where it should have been?
