Three
passengers and the pilot of a Saudi-owned private jet have died after
the aircraft crashed into a car auction near Farnborough, Hampshire.
The
small private jet overshot the runway at Blackbushe Airport on the
Hampshire-Surrey border, before ploughing into the neighbouring car
auction site, destroying at least 15 cars.
The
aircraft, a £7million Brazilian-built Embraer Phenom 300 was completely
destroyed in the crash, leaving behind a fireball and large plume of
toxic black smoke. See more photos of the crash below:
A spokesman
for Blackbushe Airport said: 'A Phenom 300 Jet with four persons on
board crashed near the end of the runway around 3.09 PM while attempting
to make a landing.
'The scene was attended by Blackbushe Fire & Rescue within minutes, followed by Hampshire Fire, Police and Ambulance units.
'Emergency services are currently controlling the scene.'
