NTSB: Unusual vibration preceded fatal Laredo crash that claimed Joshua Baer

TL;DR Summary
A preliminary NTSB report on the June 16 Laredo crash shows the pilots felt an unusual vibration early in the flight, later linked to a cooling fan. After fuel-pressure warnings and multiple alerts, both engines lost power and the plane crashed on a highway, killing Austin tech entrepreneur Joshua Baer and injuring others including the pilots; 911 calls captured frantic responses and Apple’s crash-detection alert was used in the response. The aircraft’s data and cockpit-recorders were recovered for analysis, with a final report expected in about a year.
