The Feb. 24, 2023, Care Flight crash that killed all five passengers was likely caused by the pilot's disorientation and an insufficient flight risk assessment, the National Transportation Safety Board said in a 27-page report released June 4. The Pilatus PC-12 single-engine aircraft took off from Reno Tahoe International Airport to transport a patient to Salt Lake City. It crashed around 9:15 p.m. in the desert near Stagecoach, 40 miles southeast of Reno.
