CORPORATE AIRLINES FLIGHT 5996

The twin turboprop crashed 4 miles south of
Kirksville while on approach to Kirksville
Municipal Airport. The plane clipped tree tops before crashing on
its belly into a wooded area. Data show the plane descending then
climbing slightly in the last four seconds before impact. The
plane lacked a modern terrain warning system which will be
required equipment next year.
