Afraid I have just hear a lower survivor number. Sad news.

From the BBC..
"It overshot the runway then crashed through a concrete wall, before hitting a building close to the airfield. It then broke up and burst into flames. "

And it's not a Tu-154 this time!

Sounds like a tragic accident, so far.

Link to one version of the story, here.

BBC link here [:(]

Cheers
