Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have gotten out of New York City, taking a recharging vacation ... amid a looming major court battle.

A source close to RR tells TMZ ... he, Blake and their four children are on vacation and enjoying some time as a family -- away from the stress of their ongoing legal dispute with Justin Baldoni.

Bianca Censori better watch out ... her sister Angelina might be eyeing the crown for most scantily clad, judging by her latest appearance.

The Federal Aviation Administration says staffing levels were below the "normal" amount when the deadly plane crash occurred over Washington, D.C. ... and, it looks like it was a decision made by a supervisor.

The New York Times -- citing an anonymous source -- says an air traffic control supervisor combined the responsibilities of handling both helicopters and plane flight paths before the usual time ... though it's currently not clear why.

Basically, before 9:30 PM, Reagan Washington National Airport has two controllers -- one to handle the choppers and the other to handle the airplanes -- and, after 9:30 they transition to only one person because traffic lessens significantly.

New video of the Washington, D.C. plane catastrophe shows a crystal clear, up-close view of the moment of impact between the commercial jet and the Army helicopter -- and the images are downright shocking.

CNN obtained 2 clips of the Black Hawk colliding with the American Airlines plane over the Potomac River Wednesday night, killing 67 people in total. The outlet reports cell phones recorded the footage from surveillance cameras that captured the tragic incident.

In the first video, the helicopter is moving rapidly toward the plane before they collide in midair, triggering a massive fireball. You then see the wreckage rain down into the river below.
