The small plane accident in Meråker happened during training on landing

– They were training on landings this day. The owner of the plane had not flown that plane before and therefore had an instructor with him to train on this, and for check-out on the plane, casualty inspector Stein Arne Lien in the Accident Investigation Board Norway informs the newspaper The magazine.

– During an attempt to land to the north, they came in too low and hit a tree. As a result, they lost control of the plane and crashed. The tree stood 400 meters from the runway, says Lien.

Åge Bratt (71) lost his life and another man in his 50s was injured in the accident.
