Poison singer Bret Michaels posted on Facebook about Motley Crue singer Vince Neil’s plane crashing in Scottsdale, “My deepest sympathy and condolences to the pilot that just passed away in Scottsdale Airpark and the other pilot who was injured, as well as my thoughts and prayers to our family friend Rain, her friends and all those that were injured in the tragic landing. I was relieved to hear that my friend Vince Neil was not on board at the time of the incident…I often fly out from this Scottsdale Airpark location and my heartfelt sympathy goes out to all involved!!”
A tragic plane collision at Scottsdale Airport in Arizona on February 10, 2025, resulted in one fatality and multiple injuries. A Bombardier Learjet 35A, arriving from Austin, Texas, lost control while landing and crashed into a stationary Gulfstream 200. Emergency responders confirmed that four people sustained injuries, with two in critical condition. One individual was reported deceased at the scene, while another was trapped inside the wreckage before being extricated by rescue teams.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has launched an investigation into the incident, with early reports suggesting that a malfunction in the Learjet’s left main landing gear may have contributed to the accident. Authorities have since closed the airport’s main runway to allow for a thorough investigation.
The Learjet 35A involved in the crash is registered to Vince Neil, the frontman of Mötley Crüe. Neil was not on board at the time of the collision. His representatives expressed condolences to those affected and appreciation for the first responders who assisted at the scene.
This incident has intensified concerns about aviation safety, as it follows a string of recent private jet accidents across the United States. Officials continue to examine potential mechanical or human errors that may have led to the crash.
