A private plane crashed in New York's Columbia County on Saturday, killing all six people on board. The Mitsubishi MU-2B, en route to a family holiday celebration, went down during a second landing attempt at Columbia County Airport. Among the victims were recent MIT and Swarthmore graduates, along with their parents and a partner. The NTSB is investigating, citing a high-rate descent and lack of communication with air traffic control. The pilot, flying by instrument in snowy conditions, reported a missed approach before impact. The investigation is ongoing.
