A National Transportation Safety Board report says pilots mishandled warning messages on a plane that made an emergency landing at Bradley Airport last year, resulting in the death of a woman.In the report released Thursday, the NTSB said the flight crew's failure to remove a probe cover before the flight, and the pilots' decision to take off with a no-go advisory message after an aborted takeoff, resulted in fatal injuries to a passenger.
The preliminary report said the crew inspected the plane, didn’t see any damage, and the pilot restarted the engine and started to taxi to a runway. The pilots decided to disconnect autopilot and as a result, the plane pitched up, resulting in lots of movement and jolting which ultimately causing Hyde's injuries, the NTSB said.
A passenger on the plane told authorities it felt like the airplane was breaking apart and that the event was unlike anything he had ever experienced.
