According to the local authorities, a tragic small plane crash in Colorado did not leave any survivors on May 17th.

The North Metro Fire Rescue District shared information about the incident on Facebook. The crash occurred around 10 a.m. in a field “north of Midway and east of Brainard Boomfield”. The incident occurred shortly after the plane from Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport had expired in Boomfield. Before the crash, the pilot supposedly tried to return to the airport after a “problem”.

What else is there to know about the plane crash in Colorado?

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the office of the sheriff of the Boulder County were reportedly in the crash scene in the afternoon.

The FAA announced that the crashed plane was a book 95. CBS detailed that the deputy head of North Metro, Mark Daugherty, spoke about the unfortunate event. According to reports, he said: “This is obviously a tragic incident, and certainly (we are) thinking about the families of the people who were on the plane.”

Before the crash, radio traffic unveiled the tower staff. The aircraft supposedly did not turn when the staff informed the pilot about another aircraft.

The pilot said: “We have to go back and land again. We have opened the door … we can hardly hear it, sir.” The tower's staff indicated that the pilot clearly landed on every runway. Shortly afterwards another pilot told the tower: “You [in the plane that crashed] Just went north of 36. “

The authorities ask the public to avoid the Open Space area of ​​Boulder County because it is examined in connection with the crash. The identities of the two victims were not published.
