MIAMI — Federal investigators arrived at Miami International Airport on Wednesday to look into what caused a passenger jet to make a fiery emergency landing Tuesday evening.
A spokesperson for the National Transportation Safety Board, an independent agency that investigates transportation accidents including plane crashes, told the Miami Herald the agency will release a preliminary report on the crash-landing of RED Air Flight 203 in the coming days.
The plane made a crash-landing after a landing gear malfunction, skidding on the runway before coming to a stop in a grassy area and bursting into flames. Three passengers were taken to the hospital with minor injuries, but everyone on board survived the harrowing incident.
