El Cajon: Medical transportation aircraft crashed into an electric channel in cloudy weather before falling last month near San Diego, killing two flying nurses and two pilots, said Federal investigators Tuesday.
Learjet 35A crashed on December 27 while preparing to land at Gillespie Field at El Cajon, according to the initial report from the National Transportation Safety Board.
The weather is used to the clouds and fog when the plane crashes into a power line and then falls into the yard of the house in the San Diego County area that does not move around 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometers) east of the runway, the report said.
The report did not show the exact cause of the accident, which would wait for the final report.
There are no people on the wounded land.
The accident killed Pilot Douglas Grande, 42, and Julian Bugaj, 67, and Nurses Christina Ward, 52, and Laurie Gentz, 68.
They worked for Aeromedevad Air Ambulance, according to the company based in El Cajon.
The twin machine jets are registered at El Jet LLC based in El Cajon, according to the Federal flight administration records.
The plane had flown on the day from Lake Havasu in Arizona to Orange County, south of Los Angeles, to transfer the patient and return to the base at the Gillespie Field when it fell, said NTSB report.
Radio communication between jets and airfields shows that pilots cancel the approach of flight instrument rules to one runway and request a switch to another runway using visual flight rules.
After the switch was given and the new instruction was given, the pilot requested that the field light appear and be told that they were 100%.
The report showed that excess aircraft at the airport with a low altitude and did not climb significantly while switching to wait back the field.
Just before the accident, the pilot suddenly exclaimed three times and shouted, according to communication recorded by LiveEsTC.net.
