NTSB finds Learjet 60 tail section separated before fatal Florida crash; cause remains undetermined
Investigators say elevator pieces from Learjet 60 N722BD separated before the jet struck the ground near West Palm Beach on Nov. 1, killing all nine aboard. Debris was found as far as 3.8 miles from the crash site, but the NTSB has not determined whether the separation caused the loss of control or followed the aircraft’s rapid descent.
