The 1996 Croatia USAF CT-43 crash killed all 35 people aboard the plane, including US Commerce Secretary, Ron Brown. At least one associate of the Clinton did not understand this to be a simple accident, and became afraid for his life.[1]
Official narrative
The official US Air Force accident investigation board report noted several reasons that led the Boeing CT-43A, callsign "IFO-21" (short for Implementation Force),[2] to crash.[3] Chief among the findings was a "failure of command, aircrew error and an improperly designed instrument approach procedure".
Concerns
The head of navigation at Čilipi Airport, Niko Jerkuić, was found dead three days after the crash with a bullet wound to his chest. The police investigation concluded that the case was a suicide.[4]
