Overview
- Tonight’s remembrance near the crash site includes a bell ceremony and wreath-laying with Mayor Cherelle L. Parker speaking.
- The NTSB has not identified a cause after determining the cockpit voice recorder likely had not captured audio for years.
- Families have filed wrongful-death suits against Med Jets/Jet Rescue and others tied to the aircraft as the operator’s insurer seeks to consolidate claims in court.
- The crash killed six aboard and two people on the ground, injured at least two dozen, and damaged more than 300 properties across multiple blocks.
- Recovery has leaned on local aid with limited city grants after the One Philly Fund raised about $35,000 and no federal disaster declaration was sought.
