Airbus A350F completes first flight; Amazon cargo plane crashes in Miami
Airbus flew its new A350F freighter for the first time from Toulouse, France, logging a 4‑hour‑10‑minute flight that reached 25,000 feet. The aircraft will now enter a nine‑month flight‑testing programme before it is slated to begin service in 2027. The test flight carried special measurement equipment to evaluate the plane’s systems and performance.1
At least five people were killed and several others injured when a Boeing 767‑300 operated by 21 Air on behalf of Amazon Prime Air crashed while attempting to land at Miami International Airport. The accident involved an Amazon cargo plane and occurred in Miami, Florida.1
