Matthew Blackburn, the sole survivor of a fatal Key West plane crash that killed his parents and two siblings, remains in critical condition but shows signs of recovery. Doctors expect to remove the ventilator this week, allowing him to begin hearing news about the tragedy from relatives who have flown in. The NTSB has found no mechanical faults and continues investigations as the boy’s condition slowly improves.
