Chartered Passenger Jet Crashed Into Buidling Killing 9 On-Board!

An estimated number of nine people including two were killed on Teusday, November 10th, when a 10-seater Hawker H25 jet, chartered by Execuflight, a Florida based company, crashed into a home and an apartment building in the midwestern city of Akron, Ohio at about 2.53pm. 

The building went up in flames after a small plane crashed into it on Tuesday afternoon.

Information disclosed by authorities indicates that the business jet which took off from Dayton and was approaching Akron Fulton International Airport where it was due to land, was descending when it clipped an overhead wire, causing it to crash into a housing block, it then hit an embankment behind the house,  before bursting into flames, and setting the property on fire.

More bodies may be inside the twin engine business jet because the fire burning at the crash site prevented authorities from confirming how many were on board the passenger plane. No one was inside the small brick apartment building or the other home that caught fire, and there were no reported cases of injuries on the ground.

It is no longer news how public officials in African countries over the years have earned the reputation of making frequent trips abroad at the slightest possible escuse, and for flying in first or business class at taxpayers' expense.
