The ashes have settled over the charred Louisville neighborhood where nine people remain missing and families cling to hope as investigators comb through the wreckage of Tuesday’s fatal UPS cargo plane crash.
UPS said in a Nov. 7 statement it would temporarily ground the MD-11 fleet effective immediately. The decision comes after the Nov. 4 crash of a UPS cargo flight in Louisville, where at least 14 people died, including three crew members, and others are still missing as of Nov. 7. It’s the deadliest crash in UPS Airlines history.
