Emergency Landing at Reagan National | US News

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin survived a harrowing mid-flight emergency when his Coast Guard C-37A lost its right engine—yet the pilot’s calm handling turned a potential disaster into a textbook landing at Reagan National. Mullin praised the crew’s professionalism, calling it “just another day at the office.” But this incident arrives amid growing scrutiny of Reagan’s airspace, still reeling from a 2025 Black Hawk crash that killed all aboard an American Airlines jet—and a recent near-miss involving Marine One. Despite FAA safety upgrades since the crash, including new helicopter flight restrictions, this emergency landing reignites concerns about whether the skies around the nation’s busiest airport are truly secure.
