• NTSB releases cause of plane crash that killed Dearborn pilot and community leader (fox2detroit.com) — Federal investigators have confirmed that a mispositioned fuel selector, not empty tanks, caused the June 2024 training flight crash in Clinton near Lima Center Road and Michigan Avenue. The NTSB says the instructor lost control during a forced landing attempt after fuel starvation, killing Dearborn chiropractor and community volunteer Kevin Kreger and injuring his student.
