Three days after the crash of a UPS cargo plane in Louisville, Kentucky, search teams are still combing a half-mile-long debris field looking for victims. More details are being released about those who died.

Louisville

Drone footage has shown the extensive damage caused by a UPS plane crash in Louisville, Kentucky, which resulted in at least 13 deaths. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and Kentucky National Guard are present at the crash site, and the local community is mourning the loss of several individuals, including crew members and families.

Victims identified include Lou Fieden and his granddaughter, as well as three UPS pilots. Nine people are still believed to be missing. The Independent Pilots Association is cooperating with investigators, emphasizing the professionalism of the crew and the challenging circumstances of the crash. Authorities continue to manage spot fires at the site, and the NTSB reported that the pilots had only seconds to respond to cockpit warnings.

New drone footage shows the charred landscape that left at least 13 dead after Tuesday's UPS plane crash and TSB investigators and Kentucky National Guard are on the scene. I pray that you would bring peace to the hearts that are here. The community is in mourning and families are remembering their loved ones. Past two days have been a lot to process. It's it's been hard. Lou Fieden, a beloved grandfather, was killed alongside his three year old granddaughter, Kimberly Asa, Matt Sweets, a father of two, who was pulled out of the wreckage, but later died at the hospital. And pilots Richard Wartenberg, Lee Truitt and Dana Diamond. 45 year old Angie Anderson is among the nine people believed missing. We spoke with Bob Travis, the president of the Independent Pilots Association, which represented the crew on the UPS flight. He knew two of the pilots personally. These were highly trained professionals. You're not flying a wide body aircraft around the world for UPS unless you have a lot of experience. Travis says his organization is working with NTSB investigators who will make the final conclusions about what happened, but he says he has no doubt the crew did everything they could to prevent this outcome. Our training is robust. Repeatedly you're facing what it's like to fly the aircraft if you're missing an engine or in some cases two. As we witnessed on the video there, it to me looked instantaneous. And it looked catastrophic, but it's your belief that there wasn't a whole lot that these pilots could have done. That's my belief. It looked like a pretty pretty hard situation to overcome. As families continue to search for answers, Travis told us the Pilots Association will continue to stand with survivors and victims families. They were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Our hearts bleed for them, just like our hearts bleed for the pilots. And NTSB revealed that Bell sounded in the cockpit for 25 seconds, meaning the pilots only had seconds to react. We're also learning that authorities are keeping hoses on hand to put out spot fires and as of today, those were still popping up.
