The NTSB has revealed major new evidence in the Learjet 60 crash in Florida. Investigators found three
pieces of N722BD’s left elevator up to 3.8 miles from the crash site, confirming that it separated before
impact.
In this update, we examine what may have failed first, whether the pilots could still control the aircraft,
and how Mach tuck might have affected the final descent. We also uncover a little-known weather
radar limitation documented in Bombardier’s Learjet 60 technical manual.
What does this new evidence tell us about the crash? Let’s break it down.
