It is with great sadness that I report the news of a plane crash in a Spanish national park, which has resulted in the death of a British student pilot.
The unfortunate event took place just after midnight on Wednesday. According to reports, the 26-year-old was flying in a light aircraft with a Spanish pilot, identified as 24-year-old Rafael Ricote, who worked as an instructor at a Malaga-based aviation school.
They had taken off from an aerodrome in Velez-Malaga, east of Malaga, and were reportedly flying towards the city of Valencia when the crash occurred. The passenger has not yet been named.
This is a tragic event, and our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of the student pilot.
