A Learjet 60 crashed on Sunday near Palm Beach, Florida, after taking off from Austin, Texas, killing all nine people aboard. The National Transportation Safety Board says investigators have found pieces of the plane’s horizontal tail, including an elevator in three pieces, scattered as far as 3.8 miles from the crash site. NTSB member Tom Chapman said the parts being broken into three pieces indicates the plane was breaking apart before it hit the ground. The probe is continuing, and the cause of the separation has not been determined.
