      Sad turn of event.

      The initial news suggested no fatalities.

      Hope the number doesn't rise further.

              Chilling video. I recall that flight 222 which crashed in July (also an ATR 72) also had 58 people.

              My condolences to friends and family of those who perished.

                  Seems like most of the survivors were in the tail end. The nose is buried in the river bed. The taxi driver whose car was damaged by the wing of the aircraft escaped with no injury by mere milliseconds. The front of the taxi including the windscreen was completely destroyed.
