Satena Commuter Plane Disappears Over Colombian Border

A Beechcraft 1900D operated on behalf of Colombia’s state-owned airline Satena crashed in a remote region of the country’s northeast, killing all 15 people on board. The aircraft departed Camilo Daza International Airport shortly before noon and lost contact with air traffic control about 12 minutes into the flight. Authorities have launched a formal investigation, led by the Ministry of Transportation. Rescue efforts were complicated by difficult terrain and poor weather conditions. Satena confirmed that there were no survivors in the crash, which included two crew members and 13 passengers. According to LEO TV (@leocastro77), the aircraft’s emergency locator beacon did not activate. Images from regional media showed significant fuselage damage at the scene.
