Plane with two Indian students skids off runway
Manila, Philippines: A four-seater single-engine plane with a pilot instructor and two Indian nationals skidded off Mindoro Airport in Vigan City in Ilocos Sur province Saturday afternoon.
Bombo Radyo Vigan reported Saturday night that the pilot instructor was initially identified as Capt. Lasala. Lasala's two Indian students were not immediately identified.
No one was injured in the accident but the plane's wings and fuselage sustained damage. The Air Transportation Office (ATO) will send a team to the area to look into the incident.
Initial details showed the plane (RPC-1038) left Lingayen in Pangasinan towards Vigan on a training flight.
The plane was about to touch down at the runway of Mindoro Airport but skidded. Investigators suspect the landing gear did not deploy in time.
Only last week, an Indian student pilot and a Filipino instructor died after their plane crashed in Bulacan.
(It seems the aircraft belongs to Air Link International Aviation College, Pasay City.
