Amazon Cargo Plane Crash Under Investigation | Portland Maine News

A deadly Amazon cargo plane crash at Miami International Airport has sent federal investigators racing to uncover what went wrong. The Boeing 767, flying in from Puerto Rico, veered off the runway, killing five and injuring others before crashing through a fence and into vehicles. Key questions center on whether the plane landed too far down the runway — prompting experts to examine speed, braking, and weather. Investigators will also probe airport safety systems, maintenance records, and flight data of the 32-year-old aircraft converted from passenger to cargo in 2015. While age isn’t automatically a red flag, the crash caused massive flight disruptions and prompted Amazon to offer full cooperation as the NTSB works to deliver answers.
