Not DC, but I listen to Medevac flights to and from Alexandria on a
regular basis.

CLEVELAND -- A helicopter crashed just after taking off from the roof of
a Cleveland hospital yesterday, killing the pilot and a nurse and
seriously injuring a medic, officials said. The helicopter slammed into
an unoccupied car at University Hospitals of Cleveland and broke into
pieces, with only the tail recognizable in the twisted wreckage.
Witnesses reported loud explosions and large flames shooting into the air
after the crash.
