Tragic reports have confirmed the death of four people who died after their plane crashed.
According to reports from local media outlets, the aviation-obsessed teenager took his mother and teacher with her daughter on a plane ride. But little did they know that the flight was doomed.
According to reports from local media outlets, the plane crashed in Vermont on Sunday.
Paul Pelletier and the other three victims were named in the crash who were residents of Connecticut.
Licensed pilot Pelletier taught aerospace and manufacturing at the Middletown High where one of the passengers was a student. The school has issued a heartbreaking statement on this front as many mourn the loss of all those onboard.
The family members of the deceased spoke about how they were receiving flying lessons from Pelletier while another pilot was accompanying them.
They dined at an upscale eatery and had plans to return on the same day but little did they know that it would not be possible.
The aircraft was a small one and had room for just four. It left the airport at about 8:30 am on Sunday. Loved ones spoke about how the families went missing and no contact could be reached. And that’s when they started to panic and alert authorities.
Crews rushed to find the plane had crashed into a wooded area near the airport and all those onboard were dead. Investigations on the cause of the crash are still taking place.
