On 6 September 2026, 21 Air flight 7598, a Boeing 767 freighter from San Juan, overran runway 30 at Miami International. It struck the approach lights, crossed a perimeter road and NW 67th Avenue, and stopped about 1,200 ft beyond the runway. A van and an SUV were hit: five people on the ground died and three were seriously injured. Both pilots suffered minor injuries; fire damaged the right wing.
The captain, flying, was newly rated on the 767 with 150 hours on type, and it was the crew’s first day together. The first officer repeatedly warned they were too fast without consistent response, and GPWS gave repeated “sink rate” and “too low terrain” alerts. The aircraft crossed the threshold at 177 kt and touched down about 3,750 ft along the 9,360 ft runway at 160 kt.
Speedbrakes and thrust reversers were never deployed. Braking began at 146 kt, then was abandoned for an attempted go-around with 930 ft left, before thrust was reduced and braking resumed with 415 ft remaining. The aircraft left the runway at 113 kt. There was no EMAS.
Thunderstorms were present, with wind 190° at 17 kt gusting 26 kt, giving a tailwind component. The controller did not give wind information with the landing clearance, as required.
The report is preliminary, and the investigation continues.
