Summary
Eleven lives lost in a devastating skydiving plane crash in eastern France — including five instructors, five student nurses seeking relief from the heatwave, and the pilot. The aircraft, a German-registered Pilatus, plummeted during ascent near Nancy-Essey aerodrome, narrowly missing homes. Emergency crews rushed to the scene as families and friends gathered to film the jump. The cause remains a mystery, with investigators probing how the plane went straight down — a tragedy now dubbed the deadliest general aviation accident in French history.
