Default Crash near P&W factory of light aircraft deliberate

Quote:
The FBI is investigating an aircraft crash across from the main entrance of a Pratt & Whitney engine factory in East Hartford, Connecticut.

An initial investigation of the 11 October crash by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) “indicates the crash is the result of an intentional act”, the board says in a statement.

“In light of that information and in accordance with established procedures the NTSB is in the process of transferring the lead for the investigation from NTSB to the FBI,” the NTSB says.

The crash involved a Piper PA-34-200 Seneca light-twin.

Exclamation Kamikaze?

I saw the NTSB statement - certainly an unexpected initial finding!
