  "account": "The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) announced on Monday that it had recovered both the flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder from the Amazon cargo plane crash that occurred at Miami International Airport. The plane, operated by Amazon Air Flight 7598, overshot the runway and crashed into two vehicles before coming to a stop and bursting into flames. Five people were killed in the crash, with all victims found in the two vehicles. The NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy described the crash as \"devastating\" and said recovery operations are still ongoing. The NTSB plans to examine various factors in the investigation, including the use of an Engineered Materials Arresting System (EMAS) at the end of the runway, the contractual relationship between Amazon and the contracted airline 21 Air, and the age and ownership history of the aircraft.",
