Caption: Amazon Pauses Operations With 21 Air After Fatal Miami Cargo Plane Crash. Amazon has paused operations with 21 Air following last weekend's fatal cargo plane crash in Miami. The carrier operated Amazon Air Flight 7598, which overran a runway and struck vehicles, killing five people. Amazon said it made the decision after reviewing circumstances surrounding the accident and supporting investigators. The aircraft was a 32-year-old Boeing 767-300 freighter operated by Miami-based cargo airline 21 Air. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash using evidence from the flight data recorder. Investigators said pilots considered aborting the landing after touching down, while one warned they were flying too fast. The aircraft had completed two earlier flights that day before traveling from San Juan toward Miami. Amazon and 21 Air said they remain focused on supporting victims' families and cooperating with investigators. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
