NTSB Hearings Highlight Safety Deficiencies in UPS Cargo Jet Crash
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is conducting hearings in Washington, D.C., to investigate the November 2025 crash of a UPS cargo jet shortly after takeoff from Louisville, Kentucky. The crash resulted in the deaths of 15 people and injuries to 23 others. The hearings have revealed significant deficiencies in the safety and maintenance processes of Boeing, UPS, and ST Aerospace, the maintenance provider for UPS. Bradley M. Cosgrove, a partner at Clifford Law Offices, represents several victims' families and is attending the hearings. The NTSB's preliminary report indicated mechanical issues with the aircraft's left engine and pylon, drawing parallels to a similar incident in 1979. The hearings aim to document organizational failures and hold responsible parties accountable.
