Majorca air collision kills German family and three others

(UTV|COLOMBO) – A German family of four were among seven people killed when a helicopter and an ultralight plane collided mid-air over the Spanish island of Majorca.

The debris came down on farmland near Inca, in the north of the popular tourist island off the east coast.

The German couple and their two children were in the helicopter, which belonged to Rotorflug, a German firm.

The helicopter pilot was Italian. A Spanish man, from Valencia, was in the ultralight plane with a friend.

Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez expressed “solidarity and sympathies” with the victims. (BBC)
