Amazon Faces Lawsuit After Cargo Plane Crash | Portland Maine News

A cargo plane crash at Miami International Airport that killed five ground crew members has sparked a wrongful death lawsuit naming Amazon, airline 21 Air, and leasing firms. The Boeing 767 veered off the runway during landing, plowing into a shuttle van and an SUV. Investigators found evidence the pilots tried to abort the landing but instead increased throttle — possibly attempting a takeoff — while still moving at 65 knots. The suit blames pilot error, inadequate training by Amazon and 21 Air, and potential faulty braking systems. The NTSB continues its probe and will interview the pilots.
