Business jet crashes onto Florida road, killing all nine aboard

Original: Pilot in plane crash said "we're managing the ice," then "Mayday" The business jet crashed onto a busy road, killing all

A business jet crashed onto a busy road in Florida, killing all nine people on board. The aircraft burst into flames and left a large crater on impact. Cockpit communications released so far show the pilot first reported the crew was 'managing the ice' moments before issuing a 'Mayday' distress call, suggesting the plane encountered significant icing conditions during the flight.

Why now: The release of the pilot's final transmissions and the deadly crash onto a populated road have drawn intense public attention.
