Florida: Mexican Learjet Departs Fort Lauderdale Airport, Crashes in Atlantic Ocean
A Mexican-registered Learjet 35 took off from the airport in Fort Lauderdale on Tuesday but crashed soon after in the Atlantic Ocean. The Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) said that the jet went down about four miles off the coast, according to BNO News. The jet was bound for Cozumel, Mexico. The jet is capable of carrying 10 people but it’s not yet known if it was full. http://flightaware.com/live/flight/XAUSD (www.theepochtimes.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]

ThanX dear friend James Farnsworth. And also to Peter Knudson.
Infact , some one from NTSB sharing info with a person like you is more effective communication than media briefing !
HOW ?
In media briefing the persons who attend are LEAST bothered by the content or the nature of subject matter.
Again, when the media breaks the news , it is heard by those who understand nothing of it OR are not interested in the subject matter.
Thus only a handful people care to learn of it.
On the other hand, sharing info with a responsible person of a portal like F A, NTSB spreads the news among professionals , barring a few like me.
Who in turn , give their highly considered views and responses. Extremely useful and helpful feed back to NTSB. Provided they wish to pay heed to what is written(said) here.
Keep up the good work.

It doesn't look like the aircraft had any sort of chance... The aircraft is just a mangled pile of wreckage now. Doesn't even look like a plane anymore. Hoping and praying that they find the two missing alive. Condolences to those affected. The whole Air Medical family mourns today.
Listening to the ATC tape again, it seams that they definitely had a bigger problem than the loss of an engine. The initial check-in with departure indicated no problem and the aircraft should have been cleaned up and an engine failure would have been relatively easy to handle. The subsequent transmissions of climb to 4000' not possible and the immediate 180 request hints at dual engine failure or reduction in power, possibly due to birds, or some other major problem.
