Buenos Aires - Rescue teams yesterday searched through the wreckage of one of the worst plane crashes in Argentina's history. At least 62 people were confirmed dead and another 44 injured after the LAPA airlines Boeing 737 careered off a runway on take-off from a city airport. The plane carrying 100 people aboard broke through the perimeter fence, burst across a road, and came to a halt in flames on a nearby golf driving range.
A charter plane carrying 10 American tourists crashed in northern Tanzania yesterday. The Cessna aircraft came down in bad weather as it took the 10 tourists from the Serengeti national safari park to an airport near Mount Kilimanjaro.
