The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said the pilot had reported engine trouble moments before the plane was forced to land on I-95. The National Transportation Safety Board has since opened an investigation into the crash.
According to the NTSB, the Beechcraft had taken off from Merritt Island on an instructional flight when it suddenly lost power in both engines, leaving the pilot no choice but to attempt a landing on the highway. A dash cam clip capturing the moment of impact has since gone viral on social media.
