Federal investigators are examining the fiery runway crash of an Amazon cargo Boeing 767 in Miami that killed five people.
Video of Sunday's landing appears to show the aircraft remaining airborne well down the runway before touching down.
Aviation experts said investigators will seek to establish exactly where the plane landed. If it touched down beyond the normal touchdown zone, they will also examine why the pilots did not abandon the landing and circle back for another attempt.
