Investigators recover the voice recorder from a jet crash in Florida that killed 9

Investigators say the recorder could help explain why the Learjet broke apart before impact and killed all nine people aboard.

  • The National Transportation Safety Board recovered the cockpit voice recorder from a Learjet 60 that crashed near Greenacres, Florida, on Nov. 1, killing all nine people on board.
  • Departing Austin at 10:37 a.m., the Learjet was bound for North Eleuthera Airport in the Bahamas when the accident occurred.
  • Witnesses captured the jet plunging nose-first into the ground, and air traffic recordings show the co-pilot reported being thrown more than 700 feet by turbulence before requesting a better route.
  • Investigators will analyze the CVR to determine why the aircraft steered into a storm cell and examine maintenance records for potential technical failures.
  • Generally, NTSB investigations require 12 to 18 months to complete, though complicated cases extend longer; the agency currently manages more than 1,200 active investigations.
