Investigators are struggling to explain what caused the fiery Missouri skydiving plane crash that killed 12 people last month – after an initial probe found no major safety failures that could account for the disaster, a new report reveals. Federal aviation investigators examining the June 14 crash – in which 11 skydivers and their pilot plunged to their deaths – found no evidence of any pre-impact mechanical or engine malfunctions that would have brought down the aircraft, according to the National Transportation Safety Board’s preliminary report released Thursday. There was no sediment or debris contaminating the 38-foot plane’s fuel, a post-accident sample found, while a review of the skydiving operator company’s records showed the aircraft met all the weight and balance requirements before takeoff.
