Quoto questo stralcio, davvero impressionante:

House owner Qayyum Amirdad, 51, said his wife and 11-year old son were in the living room when they heard a loud noise before the aircraft crashed into the side of their house.
"The plane came from the back and hit our bedroom, dining hall and car porch," he said when contacted.
Qayyum who was not at home at the time, said he was shocked when he heard the news and rushed home to find firefighters and police at the scene assisting the passengers out from the plane.

He said one of the aircraft fans was still spinning at the time.
"My wife and son were still inside the house and they were panicking so I told them to leave through the back door.
They were panic and I told them to leave the house through the back door," he said.
The crash claimed the life of a man in his 90's while two other people were still in critical condition and three others injured.
