Beeb says SA227...

Three people have escaped serious injury after a light aircraft crashed into a car near Aberdeen Airport.
The plane had just taken off and was heading for Inverness.

The mail plane crashed on Wellheads Drive, a main thoroughfare in the Dyce area of Aberdeen near the city's airport.

The plane - a metro liner twin prop - had just taken off on the routine mail flight to Inverness when it came down, hitting a car.

The pilot, the co-pilot and the woman who was the sole occupant of the car have all been talking with ambulance personnel at the scene and appear to have escaped serious injury.

Three fire fighting appliances went to the scene with other specialist units in support.

An RAF helicopter was also scrambled.

The airport is currently closed and traffic in the area is very congested.
