Insane video from the runway at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona shows the moment Motley Crue lead singer Vince Neil’s private jet collided with another airplane that was parked, killing one of the pilots and injuring others.
The clip shows Neil’s Learjet coming in for a landing on Monday and crashing into the side of a Gulfstream 200 that had been parked on the runway, the New York Post reported. Authorities have reported that the singer’s plane had some kind of trouble with its landing gear, causing it to speed down the runway and right into the side of the much larger plane, People magazine reported.
One of the pilots was killed in the crash, and three other people were taken to the hospital for treatment, including the rocker’s girlfriend, who was traveling without Neil.

In a statement from the lead singer’s representative, Neil said that “there were four people on his jet” when it crashed.
“For reasons unknown at this time, the plane veered from the runway causing it to collide with another parked plane,” the representative added. “On board Mr. Neil’s plane were two pilots and two passengers.”
“More specific details regarding the collision are not available as this is a rapidly evolving situation and there is an ongoing investigation,” the representative continued. “Mr. Neil’s thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved, and he is grateful for the critical aid of all first responders assisting today.”
The company that owned the Gulfstream, Jet Pros, released a statement that the plane was in fact one of theirs and that there were no injuries sustained on their craft.
“There were no injuries on board the Gulfstream, but external damages were sustained to the aircraft,” Jet Pros Director of Operations Gus Toulatos told 12 News.
They also said one crew member on board the plane at the time of the crash was taken to the hospital, “treated and released,” People noted.
“We are saddened to hear about the lives lost and injured. … Our condolences go out to the family members of those affected by this terrible accident,” the company added.
A statement from the Federal Aviation Administration said in its statement that the collision occurred on Monday afternoon when the private jet owned by Neil “veered off the runway after landing,” the Post noted.
In recent weeks, there have been a series of crashes involving aircrafts, with the largest one happening near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on January 29, involving an Army helicopter and American Airlines Flight 5342, killing the 64 people on board.
