NTSB report blames tires in fatal SC Learjet crash

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - April 23, 2010

The National Transportation Safety Board released its final report Friday on the September 2008 crash. Board members discussed and voted on the report earlier this month.

Barker and DJ AM, also known as Adam Goldstein, had just finished a concert in Columbia and were taking off from a local airport in their chartered jet with two of Barker's staff members and two pilots on Sept. 19, 2008.

The National Transportation Safety Board also said that a design flaw in the Learjet 60 was at fault in the crash.

Goldstein died of a drug overdose a year after the accident.
