NTSB report reveals factors that crashed in May, which killed six including musicians

A preliminary investigation into the May plane crash that claimed six people’s lives, including the devil wearing Prada drummer Daniel Williams, who has learned more about the causes of the fatal collision.

The preliminary report from the National Transportation Safety Commission shows that not only the runway is faulty, but the weather may have affected the pilot’s ability to land safely at nearby airports San Diego, California.

“The controller informed the pilot that the automated surface observation system (ASOS) of MYF (MONTGOMERY-GIBBS Administrative Airport) has been discontinued and the pilot admitted that he knew this.” The runway lights have not worked since March 28, 2022.

According to the report, MYF is an airport composed of towers that operates as an uncontrolled airport for the remaining hours of the day between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.

The pilot was approved to fly the Cessna S550 single-pole aircraft on December 15, 2024, discussing “if he had to perform the missed approach, he had performed alternative airport weather conditions with the controller.”

Weather conditions at the marine company Miramar (NKS), about four miles north of the airport, are described as calm winds, visibility and 200 feet of 200 feet of ceiling.

The pilot allegedly said he would notify the Southern California terminal’s radar pathway to control its choice of alternative airports, but did not do so in the remaining aircraft.

“When the plane is about 10 miles northeast of Nice, the controller asked the pilot if he wanted to ‘make your descent’ and asked if he wanted to go south to the medium. The pilot replied, ‘I think we’ll be fine.”

“The controller told the pilot that he was five miles from Nice and instructed them to cross NeSty on the 3,800-foot MSL and clear the RNAV method of RNAV 28R on the MYF, which the pilot acknowledged.”

The pilot then hit a position saying he was close to three miles, and then “the sound of the microphone button was typed seven times, consistent with the attempt to activate the pilot-controlled runway lighting.”

About 2.9 miles from the airport, the Cessna flies too low to fly at an MSL altitude of about 1,190 feet above the Palos. The minimum crossing height is listed above MSL 1,380 feet.

this The first point of contact NTSB said that when the aircraft damaged the power transmission line at 90-95 feet above the ground, it was about 1.8 nm from the runway.

Part of the plane is located about 200 feet lower in the line, with debris fields more than a mile away on a residential street. The plane affected a residential structure and 20 cars that were damaged or damaged by fire after being hit or affected.

The aircraft is not equipped with a flight data recorder. The NTSB said the cabin recorder was recovered from the wreckage.

“The repair of affected RAI lighting components and replacement of lighting systems have been delayed awaiting completion of an environmental study. All other runway lighting can be operated in the event of an accident,” NTSB said in the report.
