A LIGHT aircraft plunged to the ground during a flight show in Shijiazhuang, capital of north China’s Hebei Province, yesterday, killing all four people on board.
The LE-500 model plane was produced by AVIC Industry Corp of China. A pilot and three customers were onboard when the accident happened at 4pm.
A witness said the plane suddenly fell out of the sky and hit the ground, causing billows of black smoke.
Another witness reportedly said the involved plane was for visitors to experience and it was seen swinging for a while after taking off, according to China News Service, adding that the plane fell out of the sky and hit a cornfield about three minutes later.
The show which began on Tuesday is due to end today. More than 50 general aviation manufacturers and operators brought around 150 aircraft to the event, which was sponsored by the AVIC flight club. The show has been an annual gala for flight fans, featuring stunt flights and music performances.
