A plane owned by Mötley Crüe singer Vince Neil was involved in a fatal accident in Arizona on Monday (February 10th). According to authorities, one person was killed when a Learjet 35A veered off the runway and crashed into a Gulfstream 200 business jet on the ramp at Scottsdale Municipal Airport.
In addition to the deceased, one person was trapped inside one of the planes for an extended period of time, while three others were taken to local hospitals with injuries.
Scottsdale Mayor Lisa Borowsky stated, “Today, Scottsdale sadly experienced an aircraft accident at our airport. Based on the information provided thus far, it appears at least one person is dead after two jets collided on the runway at Scottsdale Airport.”
Local station Newschannel 5 (WTVF) reports that the Learjet 35A is owned by Chromed In Hollywood, a company based in Franklin, Tennessee, and is registered in Wyoming with Vince Neil listed as a principal agent.
A statement from the FAA reads: “A Learjet 35A veered off the runway after landing and crashed into a Gulfstream 200 business jet on the ramp at Scottsdale Municipal Airport in Arizona around 2:45 p.m. local time Monday, Feb. 10.”
A couple years ago, it was reported that Neil’s 1985 Learjet 35A was up for sale, but according to the Aviation Safety Network, the plane that was involved in the crash is a 1989 model.
Consequence reached out to Mötley Crüe’s representative to confirm whether the Learjet is indeed owned by Neil, and if he or any of his associates were on the plane at the time of the crash.
A couple of local news reports on the crash can be seen below, as well as raw video of the moment of impact.
