NEWLY released pictures capture the devastating moment a UPS cargo plane’s wing ignited during takeoff, sparking a disastrous accident that left 14 people dead.
Three crew members and 11 people on the ground were fatally injured after the doomed plane took off at Louisville International Airport in Kentucky on November 4.
On Thursday, the National Transportation Safety Board published a preliminary report that gave new insights into the UPS Boeing MD-11F crash.
Bone-chilling surveillance images captured the left engine and pylon separating from the wing as the plane lifted from the ground.
The craft burst into flames and briefly floated in the air before crashing nearby and erupting into a massive explosion.
The craft did not exceed 30 feet before falling, according to the investigation.
