Fourteen people, including three pilots, died and 23 others were injured after UPS Flight 2976 crashed trying to take off from Louisville's Airport.
The McDonnell Douglas MD-11, built in 1991, went down around 5:15 p.m. Nov. 4 after its left wing caught fire. The plane was fully loaded with fuel for the nine-hour flight to Honolulu from UPS Worldport at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport.
The Jefferson County Coroner's Office identified all 14 victims of the deadly Nov. 4, 2025, UPS plane crash in Louisville.

The National Transportation Safety Board's preliminary report said the plane's left engine caught fire and detached during takeoff. In that report the agency's investigation revealed the part that secured the engine showed "fatigue cracks."
Investigators say the UPS plane got only 30 feet into the air before it crashed and burst into flames, hitting several businesses just south of the airport.
Several lawsuits against UPS, General Electric and Boeing are all pending and more than a month later cleanup continues and many businesses remain closed.
Eleven of the lives lost were customers and workers at Grade A Auto Parts.
