quick ADS-B data derived report, incident aircraft ofc is N358TV (#A40442) historical track: globe.airplanes.live?icao=a40442 data shows a gradual loss of groundspeed followed by a sudden drop in altitude, obviously much too early to speculate on cause

Line chart showing the final 15.5 minutes of ADS-B data for Eurocopter AS350 B2 (N358TV) on September 15, 2026, from 18:40 to 18:55 PDT.

The chart features three stacked subplots against a shared time axis:

Altitude (ft): Displays both barometric (uncorrected, 29.92) and geometric (GNSS) altitudes, which hover mostly between 1,700 and 2,000 ft before a sharp descent at the end dropping 875 ft in 14.2 seconds down to approximately 900 ft.

Ground speed (kt): Shows speed fluctuating between 40 and 80 knots for most of the flight, dropping to a low of 10.5 kt near the end before a slight spike.

Geometric vertical rate (fpm): Illustrates vertical speed hovering near 0 fpm, followed by a steep descent rate reaching -4,800 fpm in a single report near 18:55.

friends in the Houston area, my talented and hilarious friend Kelsey Caine is performing for the first time in several years and I am so hyped for this show if you can make it, you gotta check it out info + tickets: www.crowdwork.com/e/i-ll-let-a...

Poster for the comedy show "I'll Let Anyone Break My Heart." A large red broken heart, drawn in pastel, fills the center against a black and blue background. White text over the artwork reads: a comedy show by Kelsey Caine. Improvised Comedy + True Stories. Saturdays 9:30pm. September 12th, 19th & 26th. The Coronation Theater, 3100 Canal St. Suite 100F Houston, TX.

Event description text: "I'll Let Anyone Break My Heart" is a show that combines improvised storytelling by comedienne Kelsey Caine with improv comedy. The core of the show will always be making light of romantic devastation, however, heartbreak has many forms to be explored: friendship fallouts, career letdowns, family strife, that bitch death, etc. The goal of this show is to leave the audience a little less heartbroken than when they came in, or at the very least knowing they are very much not alone. Free Parking. Full Bar. Quaint Kitchen. Location: 3100 Canal Street Houston, TX 100F, Houston, TX 77003.

quick google earth 3D visualization of that same data

A 3D perspective satellite map view visualizing aircraft approach paths to an airport runway at Miami. The visualization overlays flight trajectory data onto the landscape. A thick red line, representing the flight path of the incident aircraft, descends from the upper left toward a runway in the lower right foreground, dropping vertical red lines to a yellow ground track. Below this red path is a dense cluster of thin grey lines, representing the historical approach paths of 25 preceding peer aircraft. This visual comparison clearly demonstrates that the red incident flight path remained significantly higher in altitude than the normal glide slope established by the grey peer envelope throughout the approach. The background features an urban area, coastline, and ocean under a blue sky, while the foreground shows a detailed airport complex. Text at the bottom indicates map data sources, including Landsat/Copernicus and Image © 2026 Airbus.

a look at the approach profile of the Amazon Air 767 that crashed at Miami compared to other 767s that landed on runway 30 ADS-B data via airplanes.live

A two-panel chart titled "KMIA Runway 30 (9,360 ft): N1997A against the 25 preceding Boeing 767 approaches." Both panels share an x-axis representing the distance along the runway 30 centerline from the threshold in feet, ranging from -35,000 (short of the threshold) to 10,000.

Top Panel (Altitude):
Shows barometric altitude in feet. A gray shaded band, made up of thin gray lines, represents the "Peer envelope, min to max (n=25)" for the previous 25 Boeing 767 approaches. This envelope is tightly clustered around a dotted "Nominal 3.0 deg path". A solid red line with data points tracks flight N1997A, showing its altitude was significantly higher than the entire peer envelope throughout the approach. An annotation points to a peak on the red line at approximately 3.1 NM from the threshold, noting it is "+585 ft above the peer median and 537 ft above the highest of all 25 peers". A shaded region on the right side of the graph indicates the "RWY 30 paved surface". The red line terminates inside this area, annotated with a red circle and the text: "still airborne, 162 kt, 2,332 ft of runway left".

Bottom Panel (Ground Speed):
Displays ground speed in knots. Thin gray lines show the ground speeds of the 25 peer approaches, generally decelerating and clustering between 130 and 160 knots. The solid red line tracking N1997A's ground speed demonstrates that the aircraft was traveling significantly faster than all peer aircraft for the duration of the charted approach. Its speed starts near 210 knots, dips and rises, and eventually drops to 162 knots. An annotation at the final data point reads "162 kt over the last 2,332 ft".

Small text at the very bottom provides data sources, methodology (explaining the 2 NM final-approach gate used for peer selection), and caveats regarding uncorrected altitude and airspeed.
