Zrakoplov kanadskih zračnih snaga Snowbirds srušio se u nedjelju u blizini gradu Kamloopsu u Britanskoj Kolumbiji, pri čemu je jedna članica posade poginula, a još jedan je ozlijeđen, javio je Global News.

Zrakoplovne snage su na Twitteru potvrdile kako se njihov avion srušio u blizini Kamloopsa, oko 320 km sjeveroistočno od Vancouvera, ali nisu dale nikakve detalje. Zrakoplovi su bili na turneji po Kanadi kojoj je cilj podići raspoloženje tijekom epidemije koronavirusa.

Witnesses said the pilot managed to eject from the plane with a parachute before the crash. The pilot landed on the roof of a house and appeared to have suffered back and neck injuries.

Poginula je Jennifer Casey iz Halifaxa koja se kanadskim zračnim snagama pridružila 2014. godine

"Jedna osoba prevezena je u bolnicu", objavio je na Twitteru ministar zdravlja Britanske Kolumbije Adrian Dix, dok o stanju pilota nema informacija.

To je druga zrakoplovna nesreća od listopada prošle godine u kojoj su sudjelovali Snowbirdsi.
