ABBOTSFORD, B.C. — The crash of a historic biplane at Saturday’s Abbotsford Airshow sent five people to the hospital.
KOMO reports the 1930s-era biplane crashed shortly after takeoff at about 5:30 that afternoon.
All five people aboard were hospitalized with one in critical condition and another in serious condition.
NEW: Attendees at the @AbbyAirshow tell us a vintage aircraft struggled to take off after the show ended, crashing nose-down on airport property. @BC_EHS tells me 5 people taken to hospital, 2 of them via air ambulance. @CTVVancouver pic.twitter.com/VaPoDbQyti
