NTSB Docket Reveals Cockpit Warning Before GIV Crash
NTSB releases 800 pages of documents surrounding last year's Gulfstream crash in Bedford, Mass.
The flight crew of the Gulfstream GIV that crashed on May 31, 2014, in Bedford, Mass., received a "rudder limit" advisory (blue) message while on rollout, according to more than 800 pages of data released today by the NTSB. The aircraft overrran the runway after a failed takeoff, struck lighting and an antenna assembly and came to rest in a gully before being consumed by a post-crash fire, killing all seven on board.
