NAKHON PHANOM -- Three people were killed when a small twin-engined aircraft crashed into a rice field near Khok Kong village in Muang district of this northeastern border province before dawn on Thursday, according to media reports.
The DA42 training aircraft, operated by the International Aviation College Nakhon Phanom, had taken off from Nakhon Phanom airport about 4.59am.
About 30 seconds later the pilot reported an engine was on fire and requested permission from the control tower to make an emergency landing. The control tower turned on the runway navigation lights to assist the pilot, but then lost all contact with the aircraft.
The plane crash landed in a rice field near Ban Khok Kong village in Muang district, about two kilometres from the airport, killing all three people on board.
