US Cargo Plane Crashes in Dubai
Friday, September 3, 2010 at 10:49 am
An American cargo plane attempting to land at Dubai’s airport instead crashed nearby Friday, setting some cars on fire and killing several people, Al Arabiya television reported.
Ambulances were rushing to the area, located near a residential district, the station added. It did not report the model of aircraft or its size. The dead were thought to be the cargo plane’s crew. A large section of the plane was visibly on fire before it crashed.
Al Arabiya said the plane crashed on a highway, but the UAE’s news agency said it was an unpopulated area. In October 2009, a Sudanese Boeing 707 cargo plane crashed in the desert outside Dubai, killing six crew members. UAE regulators have banned the plane’s Sudanese owner from operating in the country.
