The pilot is in serious condition in Cairns hospital. I have been told that the area was socked in with cloud and the pilot appeared to be following the road. The guys in Moro speculate that he contacted a tree.
7 pax in a Longranger? My calc's indicate that it had to be overloaded comsidering that area is around 5000ft AMSL.
Saw the CAA guys getting onto the Dash in Moresby yesterday so they will be on the ground today.
