North Myrtle Beach Airplane Crash

According to authorities, a fifth individual passed away after being brought to the hospital after the incident on Sunday. Four people died at the spot.

A small plane crashed on Sunday in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, killing five people. 

On Twitter on Sunday night, the National Transportation Safety Board said that it is looking into the crash involving a Piper PA-32R-300 aircraft. 

According to CNN, the plane took off from Grand Strand Airport before coming down on Pete Dye Dr. two miles to the northwest of the airport. According to WBTV, the aircraft departed Grand Strand Airport at approximately 11:20 a.m. local time. 

The victims are still being identified by the Horry County Coroner's Office. Once everyone has been located and their next of kin informed, they will release the information, North Myrtle Beach Police Public Information Officer Pat Wilkinson told CNN.

The road had been reopened and the wreckage had been cleared by Monday night, according to the North Myrtle Beach Police. 

The wreckage from the plane crash scene on Pete Dye Drive has been cleared away. The police department posted on Facebook that Pete Dye Drive is now open again. "We appreciate your cooperation and help, and we thank you everyone. Please remember to pray for the victims of this tragedy and their families. 

Four persons perished at the scene of the collision, according to Chief Deputy Coroner Tamara Willard of the Horry County Coroner's Office and WBTV. An individual was extricated from the rubble and transferred to Grand Strand Regional Medical Centre, where they eventually passed away. 

The Independent claims that the pilot of the jet, which has seating for six passengers, was one among the fatalities. Some of the victims' relatives, according to WMBF, are international. 

According to CNN, the Federal Aviation Administration is also looking into the disaster in addition to the NTSB. 

According to Keith Holloway, a spokesman for the NTSB, "it is important to note that NTSB does not determine cause in the early part of the investigative process." "This is regarded as the investigation's fact-finding phase."  

Where did the deadliest aviation accident occur?

Two Boeing 747 passenger planes collided on the runway at Los Rodeos Airport (now Tenerife North Airport) on the Spanish island of Tenerife on March 27, 1977, causing the Tenerife airport catastrophe.

What ever become of the man who deliberately wrecked his aircraft?

The highest possible term for the offence of destruction and concealment with the aim to obstruct a federal inquiry is 20 years in federal prison. Trevor Daniel Jacob, 29, of Lompoc, consented to plead guilty to this charge.

What caused the pilot to jump from the aircraft?

THE AP: RALEIGH, N.C. According to an early assessment made available by the National Transportation Safety Board on Tuesday, a copilot who committed himself by jumping from a tiny plane in North Carolina was furious about destroying the aircraft's landing gear during an unsuccessful runaway approach.
