The Philadelphia Skating Club and other figure skating clubs nationwide are offering condolences following deadly plane crash in Washington D.C. involving skaters and coaches.

Two highly-regarded Russian figure skating coaches whose son recently finished fourth at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships were among those feared dead after an American Airlines flight collided with an Army helicopter and crashed into the frigid waters of the Potomac River Wednesday night.

Some members of the U.S. Figure skating community were reportedly on board a passenger jet that crashed into an Army helicopter.
