Today, a small plane crashed at a small southern Ireland airport, killing six and injuring six. The injured were taken to a local hospital and four are said to be in serious condition, while the other two are resting comfortably. The plane, which went up and flames, attempted twice before to land in low visibility, and finally landed for the third time at this airport while surrounding roads and airports were closed because of the weather. Government officials were shocked to learn of the deaths from the crash and expressed sympathy to the families of the victims. They also wished those injured a speedy recovery. The crews that were also involved in the rescue were commended for their excellent work. The aircraft was on lease from Flightline BCN in Spain, and both Irish and British experts will be involved in the investigation of the crash.
