Car Crash Missouri Today in Missouri: A Pacific Aerospace P-750XL skydiving aircraft crashed nose-down in a field about 445 feet west of the southern part of the operator's landing zone shortly after takeoff from Butler Memorial Airport in Missouri. Surveillance video showed the aircraft gradually banking left until its wings were perpendicular to the ground. The pilot and 11 parachutists on board did not survive. The NTSB preliminary findings indicate the Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-34 engine was producing power at impact and no evidence of sediment or debris was found in fuel samples.
