New York Helicopter, the sightseeing tour company that owned the tourist helicopter that crashed in New York City on Thursday, has temporarily closed during investigations into the crash by federal agencies. 

The Federal Aviation Administration said that the company would be “shutting down their operations immediately” in an X post on Sunday.  The FAA also said that the National Transportation Safety Board is still conducting an investigation into the causes of the crash.  

"We will continue to support @NTSB’s investigation," the agency said. "Additionally, the FAA will be launching an immediate review of the tour operator's license and safety record."

While the FAA did not specify for how long the sightseeing company would be closed, as of Monday the official New York Helicopter website has dates available for booking beginning April 20 for the Kearny, N.J., location and May 1 for the Manhattan location.  

An employee of the company stated that they did not have any information on how long the company would be shut down for when Just the News reached out by phone on Monday to clarify whether the company is still booking tours after April 20.

New York Helicopter said that it will not be directly commenting on the crash due to cooperating with federal investigations and offered condolences to the families of the six people killed in the crash in a statement on the company's website. 

"At New York Helicopter Tours, the safety and well-being of our passengers and crew has always been the cornerstone of our operations," the company said. "Our immediate focus is supporting the families and their loved ones affected by this tragedy, as well as fully cooperating with the FAA and NTSB investigations."

The helicopter crashed into the Hudson River while on a sightseeing tour on April 10.  All six occupants were killed in the crash, including the pilot and a family of five. The cause of the crash has not been determined.
