MASwing crashed in Kudat; claim 2 lives

Morning people!!

It has been ages since the last airplane crash in Malaysia. I believe the last airplane crash was at Melaka but however its was actually on training purposes - a pilot trainee and her instructor. And both on board escaped unharm. 

This morning we have learnt that there's a commercial airplane crash in Kudat, Sabah. The MASwing airplane crashed in Kudat Airport and claimed 2 lives.

The plane oversoot the runaway and crashed a house nearby village in Kampung Sin Sin while trying to land. The house owner and family escaped unharm.

There were 16 people onboard - 15 Malaysian and 1 Filipino. The crash had claimed a 69 years-old local man and the 23-year old co-pilot. Other passengers onboard were given outpatient treatment at Kudat Hospital.

Isis would love to express and extand condolences towards the family impacted from the crash.
