Small Plane Crashes into Australian mall killing pilot, 4 US citizens: Larissa Perez #5

Summary: A small plane crashed into a shopping center after takeoff Tuesday morning. Everyone in the plane was killed including pilot according to police statement. Fortunately DFO shopping center was closed and no one was inside and therefore no one was killed. All flights out Essendon were temporarily put to a stop and the the Tullamarine Freeway was closed due to scattered debris.

Analysis: This article was published on February 21, 2017 by Joel Williams, Douglas Jones and Ben Westcott. Although small this was a tragic event. However I'm still curious to what made the plane crash. Although the shopping center was closed 5 lives were still lost and their family and friends are deeply impacted by this lose.

  1. This is really shocking! I am glad that these people were never injured, however, I sure hope that our regulations for air travel are much more restricted.

  2. That certainly is terrible. I know what its like to lose someone over a freak accident like that. Its easy to try and find someone to blame when there really isn't anyone at fault. I hope their loved ones can get through this.
