(CNN) -- It's been a year since a plane crash ended the lives of Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera and six others, and new details have emerged about what might have caused the plane to plunge 28,000 feet into a mountainous area of northern Mexico.Last week, Mexico's aviation investigation agency released its findings on the December 9, 2012, crash, saying that the 78-year-old pilot was too old for the license he was given by Mexican authorities, and the 43-year-old Learjet was flying unevenly and shaking when it reached cruising speed.
In addition, the report from Mexico's General Directorate of Civil Aeronautics noted that the owner of the plane neglected to report problems with the plane's operation before last year's ill-fated flight from Monterrey to Mexico City.The agency said the report reflects the conclusion of its investigation into the crash that killed Rivera, two pilots, and the singer's lawyer, publicist, hairdresser and makeup artist.The families of the four passengers have filed a wrongful death suit against Starwood Management, the company that owned the plane, and Jenni Rivera's entertainment company.
