Mozambique crash (last week)

Hello all,

Apparently a plane had crashed at Beira on the 2nd of September. 7 South African occupants were killed instantly.

On SABCnews there is a picture of a relatively big aircraft that had burnt out completely.

However I doubt it was an airliner (narrowbody).

If anyone can help with some info please!!!

Thanks

More Info on The Crash

Hello all, you can read a detail information about the crash of the airplane and the passengers on:

A group of South Africans who were killed in a plane crash in the central Mozambican city of Beira were in the country to identify business opportunities, the state controlled Noticias newspaper said in a report on Monday.

The report identified four of the victims as Louisa Suzana, Daniel Johane, Wilson Zao and Michel Paul who were aboard the Durban registered commercial plane which crash landed in Beira on Saturday.

On Sunday national television channel Televisao de Mozambique said in a report the accident occurred when the plane allegedly ran out of fuel.

But, the Noticias quoted director of Beira International airport, Antonio Tito, as saying that a commission of inquiry had been set up to determine the cause of the crash.

Tito told the paper that the pilot had lost contact with the airport control tower suggesting the plane had problems.

The plane was supposed to have landed at Beira International Airport at 2.36pm on Saturday but it crash landed in Palmeiras, a densely populated suburb of the city near the Indian Ocean.
