The investigation into the tragic plane crash that claimed the life of Cardiff City footballer Emiliano Sala has taken a significant step forward as investigators have gained clarity on the ownership of the aircraft involved.
The Piper Malibu N264DB, which crashed into the English Channel on the fateful night of January 21, has long been shrouded in speculation and mystery regarding its ownership. However, Southern Aircraft Consultancy Inc., a British-based Trustee firm responsible for registering the aircraft with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the USA, has now issued a detailed statement, shedding light on this crucial aspect of the investigation.
Southern Aircraft Consultancy Inc. specializes in providing non-US citizens with the opportunity to legally register their aircraft in the US. Through this process, the company holds the plane in trust for the actual owner, while ensuring that information about the owners remains confidential and is not disclosed to the public. Consequently, the names of the true owners of the Piper Malibu are not accessible on the FAA website.
This revelation marks a significant development in the ongoing investigation, offering investigators valuable insight into the chain of ownership and potentially uncovering key details surrounding the tragic incident. As the probe continues, authorities will undoubtedly leverage this newfound information to piece together the events leading up to the fatal crash and provide much-needed closure to those affected by this heartbreaking tragedy.
