John King, 62, died at the scene of the crash, which occurred around 12:30 p.m. Wednesday.
Pacoima Beautiful is one group hoping to shut down the airport. Teodora Reyes, one of the many locals that make up the non-profit organization, spoke with CBS reporters Wednesday evening, where she detailed that since as of 2020, 75 crashes had been related to Whiteman Airport, according to the NTSB."The concern is for the safety of the most impacted members," Reyes said,"who deal with the noise pollution and fear of an airplane falling on their home in the middle of the night.
L.A. City Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez issued a statement following the crash on Wednesday evening, which read: Crews on the scene planned to move the plane from the embankment into an empty field adjacent to the crash site by crane, where NTSB and FAA investigators will work to determine the cause."All of the sudden you heard like this 'shhh... BOOM,'" said one woman who rushed to where the plane crashed."When we went over there we didn't see smoke. Nothing was on fire."
