NTSB arrives to investigate Maine plane crash that killed 6

Maine Plane Crash - (WABI)

The National Transportation Safety Board arrived Tuesday to begin investigating at a Maine airport where a business jet crashed during takeoff, killing all six people on board.

The Paris-bound Bombardier Challenger 600 flipped over and burned on takeoff at Bangor International Airport around 7:45 p.m. Sunday night as the nation’s massive winter storm was beginning to reach the area. It remained unclear on Tuesday if the weather or cold played a role in the crash as investigators were just beginning their work.
