A shocking aviation accident unfolded in Beijing when a light sport aircraft struck the CITIC Tower (also known as China Zun), the tallest building in the city, before crashing to the ground. The pilot, who was the only person on board, lost his life, and multiple people on the ground were injured. Authorities have launched an investigation into what led to this highly unusual accident. In this video, Captain Steeeve examines the known facts, the aircraft involved, the flight path, and the unique challenges surrounding general aviation operations in one of the world's most tightly controlled airspaces. We'll also discuss what questions investigators will be asking as they work to determine exactly what happened. As always, our thoughts and prayers are with the family of the pilot and everyone affected by this tragic accident.
