Officials probe cause, wreckage of horrific Florida jet crash

Federal investigators with the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) are examining the crash of a Learjet 60 that went down in Palm Beach County, Florida on November 1. All nine people aboard—seven passengers and two crew members traveling from Austin, Texas, to the Bahamas—were killed, and one person on the ground was injured. The jet slammed into a South Florida community near a busy roadway after encountering in-flight icing and turbulence, with investigators focusing on why the flight crew lost control of the aircraft.
