Vintage plane crashes in Swiss Alps, killing all 20 on board


Determining why a vintage plane crashed in the Swiss Alps will be challenging since the 79-year-old aircraft did not have black boxes and was traveling in an area without frequent radar readings when it plunged into a mountain, killing all 20 of the people on board, investigators said Sunday.

The Junkers Ju-52 plane, operated by Swiss company Ju-Air, plunged at a near-vertical angle before it hit the Piz Segnas mountain while carrying 17 passengers and three crew members.

Thank you for sharing the article EuTuCroquet? How sad that what was meant to be a scenic ride turned into tragedy for the poor souls aboard . :-(
