The company behind the tragic Hudson River helicopter crash last week that ended in the deaths of a tourist family and their former Navy Seal pilot is ceasing operations, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said.

The FAA made the revelation late Sunday night in a statement, three days after the crash made headlines around the world, revealing that New York Helicopter Tours would no longer be offering flights around the Big Apple.
