A plane crashed early Thursday at Statesville Regional Airport, about a 45-mile drive north from Charlotte, according to airport officials.
From @theathletic.com: Greg Biffle, a former NASCAR champion, and his family were among the seven people killed in a North Carolina plane crash.

Looks like it tried to go around in bad weather and didn't make it. Some NASCAR guy.

What do you mean "go around", they had just taken off, seems like they had some issue at 4K and returned, almost made it.
What I don't understand is why they tried to land on end of the runway they took off from (tailwind). when they could have just done a straight in.
