One of the two pilots aboard the private jet owned by Mötley Crüe singer Vince Neil died when the aircraft veered off a runway in Arizona and hit a parked business jet.

Vitosky, 78, was a Marine veteran who had six decades of experience under his belt and had been flying Neil for years. In an interview with the Arizona Republic, his daughter, Jana Schertzer, credited her father's skill with saving the lives of the rest of the people onboard.

The private jet of Vince Neil, the lead singer of Mötley Crüe, was involved in a collision with another airplane at Scottsdale Airport.

The singer was not on the plane, but his girlfriend Rain Andreani was one of the several people taken to hospital, and one person died.

At least one person is dead and several others are hospitalized after a private plane owned by Vince Neil, who was not onboard, collided with another plane while landing at Scottsdale's airport.

Vince Neil said his Learjet 35 reportedly hit Vince Vaughn’s parked Gulfstream G200 Monday afternoon at Scottsdale Municipal Airport.
