Eyewitness shares details of Ghana plane crash
In an interview shared on @GHOneTV TikTok page, the eyewitness shared what he noticed after seeing that the plane was flying at a very low altitude.
According to Yen.com.gh, which interpreted the man’s narration in English, the eyewitness claimed to have noticed that the pilot was struggling with the aircraft.
He also shared that at a point, the pilot appeared to be standing upright before sitting again.
The eyewitness said he was gesturing at the pilot to know what was wrong, as it appeared that he had lost control.
His words:
“I was gesturing to him to know what was wrong, but I also realised that the blade of the aircraft had stopped. He tried to stabilise it, but it appears the engine failed him. I could see him making hand gestures at me. The engine went off, and that is how the aircraft crashed."
The video was captioned:
"More eyewitnesses recount two-seater aircraft crash in Tema Community 1."
