The light aircraft that crashed and burned near Bruck an der Großglocknerstrasse in Salzburg on Saturday afternoon has been recovered until the evening hours. The two occupants became trapped in the wreckage and were killed in the crash. The analysis of the cause will probably take longer.
As of 7 p.m., firefighters were still working on the rescue. The aircraft wreckage was secured and taken to a cordoned off area for an initial investigation. Police questioned witnesses at the scene and recorded their statements.
investigations are underway
The public prosecutor seized the wreckage. She is currently investigating the cause of the accident. An expert will not be sent until Monday at the earliest to investigate the course of the accident, explains Bernhard Kaserer, chief of operations of the Bruck volunteer fire brigade. The goal is to clarify why there were several small explosions in the plane and why it caught fire. The autopsy of the two dead will also take some time.
The plane crashed on a meadow in Bruck near the toboggan run there. The German light aircraft with two occupants had previously taken off from Eggenfelden Airport in Lower Bavaria.
