Veteran Pilot Killed in Crash of Vince Neil's Private Jet at Arizona Airport

The crash injured Mötley Crüe singer's girlfriend and others while Neil himself was in Florida celebrating his birthday.

The Learjet 35A owned by Vince Neil crashed while landing at Scottsdale Airport, colliding with a parked Gulfstream 200 due to landing gear failure.
The pilot, 78-year-old Marine veteran Joie Vitosky, was killed in the crash, but his actions are credited with saving the lives of the other passengers.
Neil's girlfriend, Rain Hannah Andreani, suffered five broken ribs, while her friend and the co-pilot were also hospitalized with injuries.
Neil was not on the plane at the time of the crash, as he had extended his birthday celebrations in Florida and planned to travel to Arizona later.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash, which temporarily closed Scottsdale Airport before reopening the following day.
