Newly released cockpit audio and flight data show a pilot on an Amazon Air cargo plane warned the aircraft was travelling "too fast" moments before it overran a Miami runway on 6 September, killing five people. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said one pilot called for a "go around" to abort the landing, but the warning came too late, and the plane crashed and veered off the runway just five seconds later, ploughing through a fence into a van carrying airline cleaning staff.

Data released by the NTSB showed the plane was travelling at 182mph when its nose landing gear touched down first, an unstable configuration that a former FAA investigator described as "really bad." Brakes were not applied for a further seven seconds, and cockpit warning systems had been sounding for about a minute before impact, while the brakes were released and throttles increased just 15 seconds before the crash in an apparent last-ditch attempt to go around. All five workers in the van died, named as Rolando Aleman, 55, Yoel Rodriguez Naranjo, 53, Julio C Pineda, 75, Carlos Acosta Fajardo, 53, and Javierkys Reyes Quevedo, 47; the two pilots, Jaime Felipe Silva Molina and Joseph Carroll, survived with minor injuries and have been interviewed as the investigation continues.
