The Federal Aviation Administration said the Bombardier Challenger 600 jet had five people were aboard when the crash happened around 3:15 p.m. Friday near Naples, just north of where the interstate heads east toward Fort Lauderdale along what is known as Alligator Alley.
The FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board will investigate, with the NTSB leading the investigation. One NTSB investigator arrived at the crash site Friday afternoon, with several more expected to arrive on Saturday.
Brianna Walker saw the wing of the plane drag the car in front of hers and slam into the wall.
This is what really did it, in my professional opinion. They would have been just fine without any engines had they not been flying over any terrain. Unfortunately, this time they just weren’t so lucky, as they were flying over a Florida interstate, which might even be fine for a plane going slow on its wheels, but not for flying through. I suspect the NTSB and FAA will concur.
