Title: Here's one for you. Post by: Traveller on February 13, 2003, 05:00:00 AM Small U.S. plane crashes in Colombia
By JAVIER BAENA, Associated Press BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) - A small plane carrying as many as five Americans crashed short of an airport Thursday in rebel territory in southern Colombia, an aviation official said. "We are working to ascertain the facts around the disappearance," a U.S. Embassy spokesman told The Associated Press. The official said various reports were coming in and that it would not be prudent to comment until they were confirmed. The Colombian aviation official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the Cessna Caravan was headed from Bogota to the Florencia area, 235 miles to the south, when radio contact was lost eight minutes before landing. The military high command had no immediate comment, but one military officer said five Black Hawk helicopters had been sent to the area.
