All 11 People on Board Survived Alaska Plane Crash, Coast Guard Says https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ5cBFeiKBczyRaAacl_a9Q/featured?sub_confirmation=1 ....... Two Coast Guard Air Station Sitka MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crews rescue 11 people after a float plane crashed 39 miles south southwest of Ketchikan, Alaska, on Prince of Wales Island, July 10, 2018. U.S. Coast Guard All 11 people aboard a plane that crashed Tuesday have been rescued in mountainous terrain on Prince of Wales Island in Alaska, officials said. A Coast Guard helicopter located the crash site and hoisted the pilot and passengers to safety, U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Charly Hengen said. “This could have been bad,” she said. “Thankfully, it was a good outcome. Even though these people did sustain some injuries, we are very thankful that all are alive and that we were able to get to them quickly even with the weather conditions.” The people were taken to a staging area with emergency personnel onsite. The Coast Guard, in a release, said all on board were reported to have received minor injuries but otherwise were in good condition. It provided no further detail on injuries. “We had, I don’t know how many, but I think probably every ambulance in town” responded, said Chris John, an incident commander with the Ketchikan Volunteer Rescue Squad. Mischa Chernick, a spokeswoman for PeaceHealth Ketchikan Medical Center, said all 11 individuals from the plane were brought to the hospital and being assessed. Hengen said there was roughly one-quarter mile of visibility as crews searched for the crash site about 40 miles (63 kilometers) southwest of Ketchikan. The downed aircraft had an emergency locator that aided rescue efforts. The crash site was located at an elevation of about 2,000 feet on the side of a mountain. Preliminary information suggests the float-equipped de Havilland Otter aircraft was in rocky, tree-covered terrain, said Clint Johnson of the National Transportation Safety Board in Alaska. The plane, which had taken off from Prince of Wales Island, was bound for Ketchikan, said Tim DeSpain, a spokesman for the Alaska State Troopers. The heavily forested Prince of Wales Island near the southern tip of the Alaska Panhandle is the fourth-largest island in the U.S. At 2,577 square miles (6,675 square kilometers), it’s larger than Delaware. Prince of Wales Island is part of the Tongass National Forest and home to a handful of small communities. Residents can travel to Ketchikan by ferry or scheduled commuter flights. ...... ✪ Welcome to the Social Hot News channel General news Celebrity news Tech news Financial news Sports news Game news Wish you and your friends watch the video fun, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ5cBFeiKBczyRaAacl_a9Q/featured?sub_confirmation=1 https://plus.google.com/+CÔNGTYCPTMDTVNB https://www.facebook.com/tinxahoi.channel/ https://twitter.com/TinxahoiChannel https://www.instagram.com/socialhotnews/
