Listening to local radio news last night, they reported that an aircraft had crashed in bad weather/poor visibility either into or just out of Bossasso when it struck a mast or antenna.

Surprisingly for local radio they had the registration number 5Y-BRN, and that it was owned by Saf Air but leased to another businessman. It didn't sound like there were any fatalities but this is where the report began to become less coherent.

Does anyone have any news on this? Is it true, and if so, what are the real details of the incident? :confused:

I hear it's in a couple of pieces, landed long and you know the rest, nobody hurt tho :cool::cool:
Maybe they took "undercutting" to a new level:hmm:
