The NTSB has released the docket & factual report for the Nov 2019 plane crash in SD that killed 9 and injured 3. This is going to be mostly about the pilot's failure to fully deice the aircraft but I've got additional thoughts. 🧵 nytimes.com/2022/05/09/us/… This was a corporate aircraft flying corporate officers & family who had been hunting at a lodge for several days. More on those folks & the company can found in this ID article. eastidahonews.com/2019/11/kyani-…
