On Monday (March 4), a plane crashed suddenly, and the next second it unfortunately burned into a huge fireball, killing everyone. And the recording of the pilot's last distress call was also **.
The crash occurred just before 8 p.m. last night in Tennessee, USA. The plane left Mount Sterling, Kentucky, at 7:19 a.m. and was scheduled to arrive at John C. Thun Airport at 7:43 a.m.
Unexpectedly, the plane suddenly lost control as it approached the airport, crashed straight to the ground, and crashed near Interstate 40, just behind a Costco.
According to the people who drove by at the time, after the plane crashed, it happened on the spot** and burned into a huge fireball.
James Hollin, a resident of the small town of Nashville, happened to be driving down Interstate 40 when he saw smoke rising from afar.
The children tried to look with their necks extended, but couldn't tell what was burning so badly. He was saying it wasn't a car, and I didn't expect it to be an airplane. ”
Another witness, Dion Burnley, said he saw the plane crash on the road, fall down, and then **.
I thought it was a car crash. ”
Others were stunned to see a plane fly over the interstate from the north, cross the lane, and crash into the middle divider.
The airport tower said the plane had sent a distress signal before it fell. At that time, the plane was gradually approaching the destination airport. But the pilot suddenly issued a warning that the plane's engine was stalled, "We are too far away, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up!" ”
Within minutes, the plane crashed. Flight tracking data showed that the pilot was desperately trying to get the plane to the airport's emergency runway, but unfortunately it was not too late.
The 1-minute recording of the plane crash was finally restored.
Air traffic control: Can you see the airport?
Pilot: Not sure.
ATC: Are you going to land at John Thune?
Pilot: My engine is out of flame, and it's currently at 1600 feet. The plane was going to land, but I didn't know it was**.
Then the air traffic control declared an "emergency" and then said to the pilot: we will find the runway for you to land in no time!
After a while, a voice came from the tower: Go directly to Runway 2! Can you see the airport?
Pilot: I saw the airport, but I'm too far away to be able to make it.
The air traffic control also panicked at this time, and issued instructions: See if you can taxi in, do you hear what I said? Glide in! They're clearing the runway for you.
But this time he couldn't wait for an answer from the other side, and the plane crashed.
The Nashville Fire Department said the tragedy was "catastrophic." In this air crash, all five people, including the pilot, were killed, and none of them were spared.
Immediately after the plane crashed, the fire brigade rushed to the scene, extinguished the fire and exhumed all the bodies of the victims. But at the moment the crash site has not been cleaned up, and debris is scattered on the ground.
After the accident, Nashville Mayor Freddie O'Connell expressed his condolences to the victims.
May the deceased rest in peace!
