17:41Now PlayingThe NTSB just released the preliminary report for the UPS MD-11 crash in Louisville — and the findings are significant. In today’s video, Captain Steeeve breaks down what investigators discovered, why the left engine separated from the wing during takeoff, and what the early data tells us about the moments leading up to the crash.
We’ll talk about the fatigue cracks found in the engine pylon, how a structural failure like this can happen, and what this means for the MD-11 fleet going forward. We’ll also look at what the crew likely experienced, why the takeoff roll looked normal until the very end, and how the aircraft ended up impacting a warehouse after losing the engine.
This is just the first phase of the investigation — no probable cause yet — but the early details are already painting a clearer picture of what went wrong. As always, we’ll walk through the facts calmly and clearly so you can better understand how these investigations work and why structural failures are taken so seriously.
If you want more updates as the investigation continues, make sure you’re subscribed. And to the families and UPS team members affected, my deepest condolences.
Fly safe.
