Pilots attempted to abort landing before Amazon cargo plane crash in Miami

On September 9, 2026, officials in Florida reported that evidence from the Amazon cargo plane crash at Miami International Airport on September 7 suggests that the pilots considered aborting the landing shortly before the incident. The crash resulted in the deaths of five individuals who were employees of an aircraft cleaning company and were in a van that was struck by the plane after it overran the runway. During a press conference, officials from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) shared data retrieved from the plane's black box flight data recorder, which was recovered from the wreckage, indicating that the pilots initiated a 'go-around' seconds before the crash.
