Amazon Plane Crashes at Miami Airport | Miami News

An Amazon cargo plane veered off the runway at Miami International Airport in a catastrophic crash that killed five people, including those in a cleaning van and an SUV. The pilot emerged shaken, injured, and emotionally distraught, calling his wife and asking a witness to reassure his mother he was okay — though it’s unclear which of the two pilots this was. Both pilots are recovering and have been released. The NTSB has recovered the black boxes and is investigating potential causes, including runway safety systems — despite the runway having standard safety areas. Neither pilot has yet been interviewed, but 21 Air and Amazon are cooperating as the investigation continues. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
