An-28 Crash in TLL

[Flip Flop Flyer]

An An-28 crashed after take-off from Tallinn yesterday, 10FEB03. Both crew members died. Aircraft, belived to be ES-NOY, was operated on behalf of TNT Express Worldwide. Picture of the aircraft shows it nose down in dense forrest. No reports on cause available at the moment.

Thoughts goes to the families of the crew members, and staff with the airline and TNT.

We had a horrible accident last year, and even though I didn't know any of the crew personally it was devastating. Can very well imagine what it must be like at TNT and the airline today and next days.

Sorry, but I do not know the name of the airline who owned the aircraft. Will try to trace it and post here ASAP.

The airline was ENIMEX.

Edited cause I got the date wrong, and I've added the airline name.
