According to radar forensics, the plane experienced an “event that resulted in a rapid loss of altitude and speed”. What exactly happened is still unknown. At the time, there was light snow and the temperature was -8.3 °C. The Coast Guard did not receive any distress signals from the plane.
All nine passengers and the pilot on board were killed, making it the deadliest air disaster in Alaska since a cargo plane crash in 2013 also killed 10 people.
