Skydiving aircraft crash outside Kansas City

[Burrito]

CBS Link for story -

11 skydivers killed, and the pilot. Pacific Aerospace P750 out of Butler, by the sound of it. Very sad.

This looks like a bad one.

One report I read said that it crashed 300 yards from the runway. Even if you were sitting next to the open door and knew the plane was going in, it would be very difficult to exit and get under a decent canopy. Prayers for all in the skydiving community.

Damn shame.

Bad day for air crashes - some musician in Brazil, the Indian Air Force turbprop and this.

Edit - and apparently an aircraft at EYW, though I've read both a Citation and a PA-28 so who knows ...

Really sad a plane full of people with chutes and they still bought the farm

Those are XSTOL airplanes and noted for their docile stall characteristics.

Interesting plane. I’ve never seen one in the wild.
