Amazon Pulls All Cargo From 21 Air After Fatal Boeing 767 Runway Overrun

Amazon Prime Air suspended its air freight operations with 21 Air after the fatal runway overrun involving 21 Air Flight 7598 at Miami International Airport. The accident, investigated under the NTSB, killed five motorists and left three more critically injured when the Boeing 767 veered about 1,300 feet (400 meters) off the runway end. Early public updates released after the September 6 crash point to questionable crew decisions during an unstable approach, including inconsistent verbal communication about the aircraft’s speed and ignored electronic warnings such as “too low terrain” and “sink rate,” which would typically trigger a go-around. The NTSB has not declared an official cause. 21 Air’s Flight 7598 involved tail number N1997A.
