Plane crash survivor tells of freezing forest ordeal
A plane carrying 10 people that disappeared four days ago in Chile’s frigid southern forests was found with nine survivors who stayed alive by huddling for warmth, sharing food and sheltering in the wreckage.
The only fatality was 65-year-old pilot Nelson Bahamondes, who survivors said apparently died from internal bleeding two days after the Cessna Caravan crashed while flying the Chilean passengers on a domestic flight to a village in Aysen region.
