The crash comes as a spate of airport accidents and air incidents in recent weeks – some terrifyingly fatal – have left travelers across the country on edge.

And that weekend, an outage with the FAA’s Notice to Air Missions system – which provides crucial information about hazards – went down for a night.

Would leftists do this?
In a heartbeat.
Can DEI please just D-I-E already!
The Lear is owned by Vince Neil of Motley Crue
That’s why they’re untrustworthy, leftists.
Local news traced Lear jet to Vince Neil. No word yet if he was on it.
p
He’s a decent guy, hope he is ok. His daughter died of cancer and he has worked his butt off to fund a foundation that supports leukemia research.
I certainly hope he wasn’t.
At least on fatality and one seriously injured in the Learjet. No injuries in the Gulfstream.

The video and audio (post 13) looks like the landing gear was up and the pilot was trying to belly it in alongside the runway.
The truth doesn’t get click revenue like the headline does as written.
Has been records can afford that?
TMZ reporting Neil was not onboard the plane, but his girlfriend was uninjured, her friend is in the hospital with 5 broken ribs. Two dogs are okay. No word on other two people except that one is dead, which I imagine is a pilot by the looks of the crash.

As opposed to what ? Happy go lucky Fatal ?
IMO the Country was more on edge when the demonratcommieblmantifaterrorscumfeminazipedophilegoatrapers were in power inside the district of corruption.
My initial thought is that there was some kind of Landing Gear situation or uneven Brake Pressure problem.
I'm going to dismiss the Banana Peel on the Runway option.
Looks to Me like the Nose Gear collapsed. The Aircraft was level and then the Nose dropped down. I’m watching on the iPhone so it’s a small screen.
