A midair collision between two light planes claimed the lives of three individuals southwest of Sydney on Saturday. The incident occurred in remote bushland 55 miles from the city, with one of the aircraft erupting in flames upon impact. Emergency services, including police, fire and ambulance teams, navigated on foot to reach the crash sites.
Witnesses described scenes of "debris coming from the sky" as the collision unfolded. The accident involved a Cessna 182 with two people onboard and a nearby ultralight aircraft carrying one person. According to New South Wales Police Acting Superintendent Timothy Calman, both crashes were "not survivable."
Details about the victims remain undisclosed as investigations into the cause of the collision are set to be conducted by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau. NSW Ambulance Inspector Joseph Ibrahim confirmed there was "nothing they could've done" upon arrival at the scene. (This story was generated by Newser's AI chatbot. Source: the AP)
