Abstract

(Bloomberg) -- Crash investigators face a difficult task dissecting what happened aboard the private jet that cruised up and down the US East Coast on Sunday with an incapacitated pilot, especially if the cause was a lack of oxygen. In the 1999 fatal crash that killed golfer Payne Stewart, three other passengers and two pilots, NTSB concluded their Learjet 35 lost pressure as they climbed, a similar scenario to Sunday's crash. After a Sept. 5, 2014, crash into the Caribbean killed a New York real estate developer and his wife, NTSB investigators concluded that he suffered hypoxia while flying at 28,000 feet from Rochester, New York, to Naples, Florida.
