Amazon Cargo Plane Crashes in Florida, Killing Five

An Amazon cargo plane crashed at Miami International Airport on September 6, killing five people and injuring another five. The plane was arriving from San Juan, Puerto Rico, and overshot a diagonal runway upon landing.

The National Transportation Board is investigating the cause of the crash, with officials recovering the flight data recorder and voice recorder for examination.

According to aviation attorney Robert A. Clifford, the pilot may have made a 'classic tailwind landing mistake,' leading to excessive touchdown speed and distance from the threshold.

The airport's two remaining runways were still closed on September 8, causing flight cancellations due to aircraft and crew delays.
