Investigators with the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) have recovered the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder from an Amazon Prime Air cargo plane that crashed in Miami, killing five people on the ground. The Boeing 767-33A operated by 21 Air LLC overran the runway by 1,300 feet and crashed into two vehicles, including an Econoline van carrying an airline cleaning crew and a Toyota SUV on a road beyond the airport perimeter fence.
The plane's pilot and co-pilot survived and have yet to be interviewed. The NTSB is still recovering evidence and crews are removing jet fuel from the scene, keeping two of the airport's four runways closed.
