Investigators believe the twin-engine Cessna 525 belonged to Youd’s employer and that he intentionally flew into his own house; Sandoval said he was an experienced pilot. It wasn’t immediately clear who employed Youd or whether he was authorized to take the plane. (heavy.com) More...

That must have been one tough BMW parked out front. I can't believe it didn't go through the house.

It seems clear that he intended to kill his wife and child. This act was pure evil.

As horrendous as this event was, he was an ATP, which will (hopefully) keep the media from implying anyone off the street could wreak havoc with the GA fleet, with the resultant hue & cry for (ill thought out) regulations.

Fortunately he only killed himself.

without killing some else - domestic violence? yep he's guilty

Youd was arrested hours before the crash on accusations of domestic violence. According to the Utah County Sheriff’s Office Corrections Bureau, he posted bail around 9:42 p.m. Sunday. According to the Payson Police department, Youd requested he be allowed to return home in order to pick up a few items. An officer was on hand while Youd retrieved some belongings and his vehicle back at the house, before leaving again.
