SA CAA calibration aircraft crash near George

https://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/N...eorge-20200123

The South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) has lost contact with its flight inspection unit aircraft that took off from George Airport in the Southern Cape earlier on Thursday.

Wreckage was found on Thursday in the hunt for a SA Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) plane with three people aboard which disappeared in the southern Cape.

A photograph sent to TimesLIVE by an aviation source appeared to show the tail of the Cessna Citation, with the registration mark ZS-CAR.
Speculation: There is high ground in the area, and clouds over the mountains at the time.
