Twin-engine plane crash reported in Coweta County
MORELAND, Ga.
(AP) — A small twin-engine plane crashed Thursday night in a wooded area near U.S. 29 in Coweta County, and at least two passengers were killed, authorities said.
The plane was on its way to the Newnan-Coweta County Airport when it went down on nearby Martin Mill Road, said Coweta County Sheriff Mike Yeager.
"There is debris spread over a wide area and all we see is big ball of fire," Yeager said.
Firefighters and sheriff's authorities were at the scene but did not immediately provide details. The Federal Aviation Administration identified the aircraft as a Beechcraft 20, but federal aviation officials also did not have details on the crash.
I was flying over Atlanta last night, and approach asked me to contact a King Air and relay their IFR cancelation. I tried to raise them on approach, and then on CTAF. Could not get them. When I got to BHM another pilot who was right behind me told me why.
