AI Summary

5 min read

A cargo plane crash at Miami International Airport killed five people and injured five others on Sunday, as the Boeing 767 operated by 21 Air for Amazon overshot the runway and struck multiple vehicles on the ground. The NTSB recovered the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder, which are being analyzed at headquarters. Investigators are examining weather conditions, including strong winds and a possible tailwind, as well as the plane's speed, brakes, and mechanical history. The 32-year-old jet had been converted from passenger to cargo use in 2015 and passed through several previous owners. Unlike over 120 other airports nationwide, Miami's airport lacks a runway arresting system designed to stop aircraft that overshoot. The crash forced the closure of two of the airport's four runways into Monday, causing more than 150 flight cancellations and hundreds of delays.
