In a harrowing aviation incident, a small plane crashed in a remote mountainous region of Costa Rica on Monday, resulting in the death of five individuals onboard. According to reports from the local Red Cross, emergency crews successfully located and are attempting to rescue the sole survivor, a 31-year-old woman.
The aircraft, identified as a Cessna 206 Stationair, went down in the Pico Blanco area during the early afternoon. Information from Costa Rica’s civil aviation agency indicated that the passengers included a family, along with the pilot and co-pilot.
Efforts to reach the survivor, who remains stranded in dense jungle terrain southwest of the capital city, San José, involve more than 40 emergency workers, including specialized canine units. The Red Cross has shared videos on social media that depict rescue crews navigating through the thick underbrush at night, underscoring the challenges faced in the operation.
As authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash, the civil aviation agency has yet to provide further details about the incident. This situation is still unfolding as emergency responders persist in their rescue efforts.
