Cessna Crash near Ursel Airfield
Early this evening a Cessna crashed near Ursel Airfield. Pilot and Passenger got killed. I'll try to figure out more since I don't live far away.
We had rain around 17.00 till 18.00 and later snow.
If anyone has details let me know.

Re: Cessna crash in Ursel
It seems the wreckage was found in the 'Drongengoedbos', which is right in the downwind leg if you fly a left hand circuit for runway 07... (winds in EBOS were 270, but this may not be a good indication)
Both pilots are said to be members of the Ursel Vliegclub. If the plane was a Cessna, it was not a plane from the club itself, as we own a fleet consisting of Pipers only.

Seaking and MD900 were flying over my house for a long time with the searchinglights on.
