Amazon cargo plane crash in Miami: victims found in cleaning-crew van and outside SUV

Five people were killed and five injured when an Amazon-branded cargo plane overran the runway at Miami International Airport. Officials said the fatalities were aboard a white van used by an airline-cleaning crew inside the airport and a Toyota SUV outside; the van carried seven people. The Boeing 767-300, operated by 21 Air, struck the vehicles and then a grassy area near a perimeter fence as it left the runway. Two crew members were on board; the NTSB recovered the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder and said investigators will examine air-traffic control and aircraft performance while focusing on recovering victims. The flight had traveled from Cincinnati to Miami, then to San Juan before the crash.

NTSB says fatigued engine blade caused Ryanair window breach amid bird-strike history

US NTSB preliminary findings indicate a fatigued engine fan blade fractured on a Ryanair Malta Air 737-800, sending debris into the cabin, shattering a window at row 11 and prompting depressurization as the aircraft climbed to 16,000 feet; a 61-year-old passenger in seat 11F was partially pulled through the opening but was pulled back by others; bird remains were found in several engine parts, and maintenance records show four suspected bird strikes in the prior year, though the root cause is not yet determined; the engine blades had ultrasonic inspections in late 2025 and mid-2026 with no damage detected; investigators say the probe is ongoing.

New NTSB Footage Points to Engine Detachment in UPS MD-11F Crash

New NTSB video shows the left engine detaching in a fiery crash of a UPS MD-11F at Louisville on Nov. 4, 2025, killing 15 people (3 pilots and 12 on the ground). Investigators say metal fatigue caused the engine attachment to fail, and notes that the flight crew had been reassigned to the MD-11F after the original aircraft was retired following a fuel-leak issue. The crash led to the MD-11 fleet being grounded and retired by UPS, while FedEx is returning repaired MD-11s to service.
