The BBC are reporting a light aircraft crashing onto a railway line, near the M6 in Staffordshire. No other details as yet.
I'm sure everyone will join me in praying that the occupants are ok.

The BBC website reports that the aircraft was a microlight . It crashed eight miles from Stafford. The pilot suffered burns and has been taken to hospital. I hope that he recovers.

I'll surely join in and pray for his recovery. Also, not to forget his immediate family and close friends.

It was a foot-launched hang glider with a Wasp powered harness. The pilot was badly burned and is in intensive care. Let's hope for a speedy full recovery.
