Data from the flight data recorder, which had about 55 hours of information, shows that seconds before the plane crash, the throttles were set to full power, according to Chihoon Shin, the National Transportation Safety Board’s investigator-in-charge.
The sequence of events detailed by National Transportation Safety Board investigators showed that the pilots lost crucial seconds before the plane ran off the runway in Miami.
The National Transportation Safety Board provided new details Tuesday on the deadly plane crash at Miami International Airport over the weekend. Five people were killed after an Amazon cargo jet overran a runway and struck vehicles near the airport. Federal investigators are examining the plane’s landing, speed, braking, weather and mechanical condition to determine what caused the crash. On Tuesday, NTSB Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy revealed the 55-year-old captain had 7,145 flight hours and received his Boeing 767 type rating in May. Officials also recovered the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder.
The National Transportation Safety Board expects to interview the two pilots who were in the cockpit of an Amazon Air cargo plane that overran a runway.
Initial flight data showed signs consistent with a “go-around” maneuver in which an aircrew does not complete a landing attempt and takes the plane back into the air for another approach.
Days after an Amazon cargo jet plowed into a van at Miami International Airport, killing five, portraits of the victims started to emerge.
