Wow, nice and I’m sure very expensive aircraft. Obviously I am not really familiar with the twin Otter series, thinking more along the lines of the much older twin upgraded with turbine engines the DeHavilland Beaver. The number of people involved should be a clue as the Beaver doesn’t have so many seats.

Awaiting successful rescue and more information on what happened.

Occasionally reading the article provides more information.

The update states all have reached the diamond mine. So It’s maybe half over but a very expensive aircraft remains at the site it went down at.

That will be a rescue effort that will also be interesting not to mention what went wrong with the aircraft or the flight.

The otter, the beaver… why name aircraft after animals that love to splash in the water? Seems ominous. :-).
