A Shocking Accident at Scottsdale Airport

Okay, so you probably heard about this already, but the plane crash involving Vince Neil’s Learjet is seriously wild. It happened on February 10th, 2025, at Scottsdale Airport. A Learjet 35A, owned by Neil’s company, Chromed in Hollywood, Inc., was coming in from Austin, Texas, when things went horribly wrong. Vince wasn’t on board, thankfully, but it’s still a massive story.

What Went Wrong?

The Learjet, apparently, had some kind of landing gear issue – preliminary reports point towards a left main landing gear failure. It veered right off the runway and collided with a parked Gulfstream 200. Honestly, who saw that coming? It kinda felt like watching a slow-motion trainwreck.

The impact? Devastating. The Learjet’s pilot sadly didn't make it. Four others were injured; two seriously. It's just awful.

Who Was Involved?

Besides the pilot, Vince Neil’s girlfriend, Rain Hannah, and a friend were on the Learjet. They were injured, but thankfully, their injuries weren’t life-threatening. A passenger in the Gulfstream reportedly refused medical attention. The full list of everyone involved hasn’t been released yet, as families are still being notified.

Vince Neil’s Reaction

Vince put out a statement expressing his sympathy for everyone involved and thanking the first responders. His lawyer, Worrick Robinson, confirmed that Vince wasn’t on the plane at the time. Motley Crue also released a statement on social media, expressing their sadness and confirming Rain’s injuries.

The Investigation

The NTSB is all over this, trying to figure out exactly what caused the crash. They’re looking at everything – possible mechanical failures, pilot error, you name it. The runway at Scottsdale Airport was shut down for a while, but it’s open again now. Sadly, this isn’t the first fatal accident at that airport; there was another one back in 2018. It makes you think about airport safety, doesn't it?

A Grim Reminder

This whole thing is a serious reminder of just how risky air travel can be, even in private jets. While the investigation is still underway, it highlights the importance of regular maintenance and strict safety procedures. My heart goes out to the families of those affected.
