A Beechcraft Super King twin engine aircraft, carrying five people, was heading to King Island in Tasmania when it came in low and fast, and hit the Essendon direct factory outlet around 9am local time.

 

Authorities says it looks like all five people on board the plane have died in what Victorian premier Daniel Andrews says is the worst civil aviation accident in the state in thirty years.
