UPS reveals identities of 3 crew members killed in Louisville plane accident.
On Thursday, UPS revealed the names of the three crew members who tragically perished in a cargo plane crash in Louisville, Kentucky, earlier this week, in which a total of 13 people lost their lives. The Executive Vice President of UPS, Nando Cesarone, expressed deep sorrow over the incident and identified the UPS pilots who were on board the flight. Captain Richard Wartenberg, First Officer Lee Truitt, and International Relief Officer Captain Dana Diamond were operating the flight when the McDonnell Douglas MD-11 aircraft went down shortly after takeoff. Investigations by the FAA and the NTSB are ongoing, with recovered black boxes providing valuable information for the inquiry. The crash occurred after the plane managed to clear a fence at the end of the runway before colliding with businesses beyond the airport property. UPS is providing support to those affected by the tragedy and expressed solidarity with the entire UPS family during this difficult time.
