Cessna crashes at BRU

Post by Sabena_690 »

Hello all,
<BR>
<BR>This afternoon (10/01), a Cessna from the ´Luchtsteun Detachement´ of the Federal Police crashed at Runway 25R.
<BR>
<BR>BIAC confirms that two people died, and that R 25R is closed.
<BR>
<BR>RIP to the two victims <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_frown.gif">

Cessna crashes at BRU

Anyone knowing the exact cause? The Cessna seemed also to have collided with an airport vehicle from BIAC, when i watch the pictures Luchtzak posted here.
<BR>Possible cause in my opinion: wake turbulence.
<BR>We´ll see what investigation concludes... Condolescences to the family of the victims

Hello Modelmaker:
<BR>
<BR>x Cause unknown, but before the Cessna, an MD11F of SV had landed, and the distance you have to keep from this bird is 6 miles. Apparently it was much less (source: De Morgen).
<BR>
<BR>x the BIAC vehicle collided with a police vehicle, both were rushing to the crash site
