Skydiving Aircraft Crashes Near Nancy, Killing 11
A civilian aircraft operating a skydiving mission crashed near Tomblaine, on the outskirts of Nancy in eastern France, on Sunday. All 11 people on board—typically a mix of jumpers and crew—were killed. France's civil aviation authority will lead the technical investigation; judicial authorities have opened a parallel probe. Aircraft type and operator remain unconfirmed. General aviation carries higher per-flight-hour risk than commercial airline operations.
