thank you. >> i want to introduce the metropolitan washington airport authority ceo jack carter, the authority manages washington at reagan washington national and dulles international. >> good morning and thank you, mayor. first, let me begin by expressing our condolences for all the victims of this flight and for their families. there's a lot of grieving going on, and so we're very sympathetic to that. i want to echo what was said about the first responders. when there's a problem in this area, everybody drops everything and they rush to where the problem is, so i want to thank the chief, the entire team from washington, d.c., but, just as important, the list of folks that the chief described, the federal authorities have been here en masse, and so a lot of effort was brought to bear. unfortunately, we weren't able to rescue anyone, but we are in the recovery mode right now, and i just want to -- you know, last night i expressed the fact we hoped to open at 11:00 today and that is still the case. we're going to open the airport at 11:00 and, again, condolences to the families and t

jack carter, chip carter, and jeff carter. and then 13 years later they had amy carter, who i think is probably the best remembered of them. she teaches art in atlanta now. >> well, she grew up in the white house. she had a lot of focus on her. >> she did. >> as a young girl. >> so all of them are there and very much part of these commemorations of his life. and be there in washington as well as many other relatives in this extraordinary georgia family. >> absolutely. it would seem some of these dignitaries, the georgia governor brian kemp, lupt governor burt jones, mayor andre dickens and the georgia state legislators, you saw some of them getting into what looked like a large limousine as well. they are probably joining this particular procession now as they make their way to the carter presidential center where we do expect to have an arrival ceremony sometime this hour. we've been watching this very closely. i did want you to continue watching with us but i did want to bring everyone in as we see the motorcade leaving the

i do want to turn to jack carter, who is the ceo of our airports authority, responsible for reagan nationalport and dulles international airport, to talk to you about how the airport responded and what is going to happen next. >> good evening, as was said, i'm jack potter, president and ceo of the metropolitan washington airport authority. thank you all for being here tonight and under these very, very grim circumstances. first of all, i want to let you know that we are providing support to all the families who are involved. american airlines has established a phone number for them to reach out, it's been published, but let me repeat it. it's 1-800-679-8215. lane are asked to reach out -- families of those on the planes are asked to reach out. they're set up at the lounge in the north end of the airport and we have directed the families there and there are folks there, counselors there to work with the families. we did have aircraft that were in the air, they were diverted to dulles airport, some 19 aircraft. we had personnel, united and others had personnel, we want to thank them for exten

he had three sons and amy who came along 13 years after jeff, and the other two sons are jack carter and chip carter. the entire family, the grandchildren, a close family, took family vacations together where jimmy carter would insist that everybody be prompt and when the bus left, it left. if you didn't catch it, you were left behind. there was only one person who got an exemption from that and that was rosalyn carter, and he was a woodworker and made her a plaque that entitled her to be late. she said it was the best present she ever received. but you also have -- you can see in the -- in the crowd there, in addition to family members, there's some people from the carter center, the chair of the board of the carter center is jason carter, jimmy's grandson, who is a peace corps veteran and former candidate for governor of georgia. very impressive heir to carter's responsibilities at the carter center. and i think the other thing to keep in mind about the carter's circle, when jimmy and rosalyn carter celebrate their 75th wedding anniversary, my wife emily, and i went to plains and we

we're told that the carter's oldest son, jack carter, will step out of the motorcade and greet governoran kemp, republican governor brian kemp, who will be there to pay his respects to jimmy carter. of course, the 39th president from here in georgia and then from the capital, he will make his way here to the carter center. the carter center, of course, has been a vibrant part of the post-presidency of jimmy and the late rosalynn carter. they founded this just about a year after they left the white house, unsure of what their next chapter would be. but boy, has it been a long one and a consequential one. really. you know, doing humanitarian work, peacekeeping missions around the globe. when you walk through the halls here of the carter center, that is what you see. this living legacy, everything from really, you know, the very beginning of jimmy carter's life that we've seen play out this morning from the peanut farms of southern georgia to the presidency and beyond. it goes through his political career as well. i was struck by one, um, passage here or one sort of a section of the librar

i do want to turn to jack carter, who is the ceo of our airports authority, responsible for reagan national airport and dulles international airport, to talk to you about how the airport responded. and. >> okay, you've been listening live to a press conference that's happening now at reagan national airport as the search for anyone continues in the potomac river. this is a live look. all those lights that you were seeing are emergency crews desperately searching for anyone who may survive this crash. we do know they've been out on the potomac river for hours right now. they are in boats. they are in helicopters. that water about 36 degrees. it was a fairly warm night in washington, d.c. when this happened. but again, this plane, an american airlines plane which carried 60 passengers and four crew members, collided with a blackhawk helicopter. we know that helicopter was based in virginia and had three soldiers on board during a training flight. >> all right, aviation consultant and former spokesperson out at san francisco international. mike mccarron joins us now in studio. mike, you talk a

told his oldest son, jack carter, will step out and shake the hand of republican governor brian kemp. that is a sign that politics, for the moment will be set aside. today, governor kemp will be leading the greeting there, and then the motorcade will make its way here to a ceremony. chip carter, one of the other carter's sons, and jason carter, the grandson, will be speaking at the service here later. but throughout the day, we've seen one chapter after another of this president's long life here. but this is his service, his legacy unfolding. yes. frustration swept him into the white house, as you said, through watergate and the vietnam war, frustration with the economy swept him out. that was only one chapter of his life longer. one was actually here, his post-presidency at the carter center. >> what's also remarkable is as the president's motorcade makes its way to the capitol, that the statue of a former governor who then became president at the capitol is not of him in a coat and tie as as a formal appearance of the former governor and president. he's in khakis and a casual shirt,
