2021 Milan airplane crash

On 3 October 2021, a Romanian private plane crashed into a building in Milan, Lombardy, Italy.

All eight occupants of the aircraft were killed, including the Romanian businessman and billionaire Dan Petrescu, who owned and piloted the plane.

[3] Less than two minutes after take-off, the auto-pilot was disconnected; flying manually while climbing through cloud, the pilot lost control of the aircraft,[4] and it descended rapidly until it crashed into an incomplete building near San Donato station in Milan.

[4] Eight people were killed during the crash: the Romanian businessman Dan Petrescu,[8] his Romanian–French wife and their son; the others were a family of four: an Italian man, his French wife, their one-year-old child, and the child's Romanian–French maternal grandmother; and a Canadian man who was a mutual friend of both families.

In fact, from the maintenance documentation acquired by ANSV, it was discovered that the aforementioned LDR was inefficient even before the flight of the accident.
