Commercial Jetliner Crashes in Rural Indiana, Killing All 132 Passengers and Crew

No Survivors in Devastating Plane Crash

A commercial jetliner flying from Iowa to Indiana crashed in a rural area of Indiana on Tuesday, killing all 132 passengers and crew on board. The plane, operated by SkyWest Airlines, was carrying 126 passengers and six crew members when it went down shortly after takeoff from Des Moines International Airport. There were no survivors.

The cause of the crash is still under investigation, but officials say there is no indication of foul play. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is leading the investigation. The NTSB is an independent federal agency that investigates all civil aviation accidents in the United States.

The crash is the deadliest in the United States since 2009, when a Colgan Air flight crashed near Buffalo, New York, killing 50 people. It is also the deadliest plane crash in Indiana since 1956, when a United Airlines flight crashed near Tell City, Indiana, killing 58 people.

The plane was a Bombardier CRJ-200, a regional jet that is commonly used by airlines for short-haul flights. The CRJ-200 has a good safety record, and there have been no fatal accidents involving the aircraft in the United States since it entered service in 1992.

SkyWest Airlines is a regional airline that operates flights for United Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and American Airlines. The airline has a good safety record, and there have been no fatal accidents involving SkyWest aircraft since 1989.

The crash has sent shockwaves through the aviation community, and airlines are reviewing their safety procedures. The NTSB is expected to release a preliminary report on the cause of the crash within the next few weeks.

NTSB Investigating Cause of Crash

The NTSB is leading the investigation into the cause of the crash. The NTSB is an independent federal agency that investigates all civil aviation accidents in the United States. The NTSB has a team of investigators on the scene of the crash, and they are collecting evidence and interviewing witnesses.

The NTSB is expected to release a preliminary report on the cause of the crash within the next few weeks. The preliminary report will contain factual information about the crash, but it will not contain any conclusions about the cause of the crash.

The NTSB's investigation will likely take several months to complete. The NTSB will need to collect and analyze evidence from the crash site, interview witnesses, and review the plane's maintenance records. The NTSB will also need to conduct tests on the plane's wreckage.

Once the NTSB has completed its investigation, it will issue a final report on the cause of the crash. The final report will contain the NTSB's findings and recommendations for preventing similar crashes in the future.
