Check out the clip … the small aircraft barely gets off the ground when the airplane starts to turn widely to the left. The craft doesn’t have enough momentum to propel itself through the turn — and, it comes down in a crash on one of its wings, tumbling over and bursting into flames.

The pilot reportedly lost control of the airplane after a tire exploded. Authorities are working on identifying the victims — citing 2 so far — and they’re investigating the crash, El Nacional reports … and, the outlet also says the plane was connected to “government logistics activities.”
