In a shocking incident, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) announced the retrieval of flight data and cockpit voice recorders from an Amazon Prime Air cargo plane that overran a Miami runway, resulting in the tragic loss of five lives on the ground.

The Boeing 767-33A, operated by Miami-based 21 Air LLC, skidded some 1,300 feet beyond the runway, colliding with two vehicles and injuring five people. Investigators are focusing on potential causes, including the absence of a runway arresting system at the airport.
