The NTSB has opened the public docket on the January 2025 Learjet 55 medevac crash in Philadelphia, and it points to a pitch trim setting well outside the required range at the moment of impact. The docket also flags a paperwork error over which FAA rule actually governed the flight, and a pattern of prior fatal accidents at the operator that regulators appear not to have been tracking closely. No probable cause has been issued yet — this covers only what's in the released documents so far. — PARTNERS & SPONSORS — ▸ For business inquiries → takingoff@outloudtalent.com ▸ Serendipitous Films – Need a video for your company? → sales@s-films.com ▸ AEROVERSE – Use code TakingOff for 15% off! → https://www.aeroverse.com/ ▸ FlyingEyes Optics – Get 10% off pilot glasses → https://flyingeyesoptics.com/pages/taking-offs-discount ▸ Colten Mortgage – Residential mortgage & refi, run by a pilot! → https://www.coltenmortgage.com/takingoff ▸ XeVision – Extreme LED Landing Lights.
