Seven perish in a fiery private jet crash at Bangor Airport during a snowstorm; the aircraft is linked to the high-profile Houston law firm Arnold & Itkin.

A grim tragedy has unfolded on the frozen tarmac of Bangor International Airport in Maine, USA. Seven people are confirmed dead after a Bombardier Challenger 600 private jet crashed and burst into flames during a botched takeoff in a blinding snowstorm on Sunday evening.
The luxury aircraft, tail number N900VA, was not just any random charter. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) records link the jet to Arnold & Itkin, a high-profile personal injury law firm based in Houston, Texas. The connection has sparked intense speculation about the identities of the victims, though officials have yet to release names pending next-of-kin notification. One crew member miraculously survived but remains in critical condition.
Chilling air traffic control audio captured the horror of the moment. "Aircraft upside down. We have a passenger aircraft upside down," a controller broadcasted just 45 seconds after clearing the jet for takeoff. The crash occurred at 7:45 PM local time, as a severe winter storm pummeled the New England region.
Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) face a daunting task. The wreckage is currently inaccessible due to heavy snow and hazardous conditions. "The weather is the primary suspect, but we rule out nothing," said an aviation expert. The jet reportedly struggled to gain altitude before cartwheeling off the runway.
As the snow continues to fall over the crash site, the aviation world is mourning yet another disaster involving business aviation in adverse weather. For the families in Houston waiting for a phone call that will change their lives forever, the silence is deafening. The crash serves as a brutal reminder of the unforgiving nature of winter flying, where even the most sophisticated machines are no match for the elements.
