A plane carrying parachutists for a skydiving trip crashed in southern Belgium on Saturday, killing all 11 people aboard.

Mayor Jean-Claude Nihoul, twenty minutes after the aircraft took off from a small airfield close to Namur, witnesses suddenly saw the plane lose height very quickly, then crash in a field near Fernelmont town.

The skydivers "were not able to jump out," Nihoul said in a telephone interview. Ten skydivers and the pilot were killed and no one was hurt on the ground, he said, adding that three parachutes were found near the crash site.(AP)
