BURNSVILLE, N.C. (AP) - A small plane trying to land Saturday at a private mountain airstrip hit two planes on the ground, killing three people, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The crash occurred about 10:15 a.m. at Mountain Air, a private golf development north of Asheville. The Mountain Air Web site said the resort is 4,400 feet above sea level and has a 2,875-foot runway.
"A single engine plane bounced on landing and struck two other aircraft and all three caught on fire," said Kathleen Bergen, an FAA spokeswoman.
