Situation at a glance
On September 6, 2026, an Amazon cargo plane overran the runway and crashed at Miami International Airport, halting airport operations; “Videos: Avión de Amazon se sale de la pista y se estrella en el Aeropuerto Internacional de Miami” describes the crash. [Citations: event:cameoplus_b37a91b9ac18e0a9, story:a85c35d73395] “Amazon-Linked Cargo Plane Overruns Runway at Miami Airport; 5 Dead, 5 Injured” reports five deaths and five injuries, and “Miami cargo jet crash kills five airport cleaning workers” identifies those killed as airport cleaning workers. [Citations: story:b6606c4b3aec, story:34dd235de65a] On September 6, American Airlines diverted three flights; on September 8, Miami International Airport canceled more than 40 flights. [Citations: event:cameoplus_1849fa652d9de08d, event:cameoplus_d93440ec98a76cb4] The National Transportation Safety Board released a preliminary report on October 1, and “NTSB says Amazon Air cargo plane touched down late in deadly Miami landing” reported a late touchdown on October 2. [Citations: event:cameoplus_f0a02ec783d95707, story:cb94b8eff2b0, story:a50920e07306] “Amazon suspends 21 Air partnership after fatal Miami crash” describes Amazon’s suspension of its partnership with 21 Air. [Citations: story:4734dfb0fc35] “Widow sues Amazon over deadly cargo plane crash at Miami airport” and “Latino survivor sues Amazon over Miami plane crash that killed five” report lawsuits brought by a widow and a Latino survivor, respectively. [Citations: story:cd9fd226889d, story:cafff61a743f]
Footnotes[11][10][9][5][12][13][14][2][1][4][3][2]Assessment
The crash, diversions and cancellations establish an airport-disruption strand, while recorder recovery and the NTSB preliminary report establish an investigative strand. [Citations: event:cameoplus_b37a91b9ac18e0a9, event:cameoplus_1849fa652d9de08d, event:cameoplus_d93440ec98a76cb4, story:9fb61dba54c8, event:cameoplus_f0a02ec783d95707] The NTSB’s preliminary report and the late-touchdown account do not establish a final cause. [Citations: event:cameoplus_f0a02ec783d95707, story:cb94b8eff2b0, story:a50920e07306] The crash Event leaves its fatality and injury fields null, while the headlines report five deaths and five injuries; the null fields do not establish a different toll. [Citations: event:cameoplus_b37a91b9ac18e0a9, story:b6606c4b3aec] The widow and Latino survivor are reported as bringing separate lawsuits against Amazon; the headlines alone do not establish liability. [Citations: story:cd9fd226889d, story:cafff61a743f]

A retained time step
This edition freezes the complete served membership and analysis available through its UTC cutoff. Later repairs or identity changes do not rewrite what this edition showed.
Stories, Events, and cast
Stories are reporting clusters. Events are coded occurrences within that reporting. The cast contains 74 canonical people and organizations linked to the retained evidence.
Typed connections
Story-to-Event edges identify supporting reporting. Entity-to-Event edges identify recorded actor or target participation. Mentions and analytical roles stay visibly distinct from recorded participation.
Core, precursor, and continuation labels organize the reading. They do not by themselves establish causation. Collapsed graph groups and paginated evidence change presentation only; counts use the complete retained edition.
