A devastating double-aviation crisis in the Bahamas<\/a>, including a deadly North Andros plane crash and a separate aircraft fire on Friday, prompted the government to suspend flight operations for a local airline and launch a federal safety probe.<\/p>\n

Shortly after 1 p.m. local time Friday, a Cessna 402 aircraft with Bahamian registration departed Lynden Pindling International Airport in Nassau bound for San Andros Airport.<\/p>\n

The Aircraft Accident Investigation Authority<\/a> (AAIA) said the plane “encountered difficulties” and crashed into bushes prior to landing.<\/p>\n

First responders, including the Royal Bahamas Police Force, Airport Authority and emergency medical personnel, rushed to the dense brush where the aircraft went down.<\/p>\n

The Bahamas Musicians and Entertainers Union confirmed in a statement Saturday that 10 people died in the crash, including prominent members of the “The Pond Band” and a local DJ, whose artistry the union said “touched so many lives and helped to enrich the cultural fabric of The Bahamas.”<\/p>\n

Bahamian Prime Minister Philip Brave Davis said a sole survivor was pulled from the wreckage.<\/p>\n

“Ann and I are praying for the families who are now facing unbearable grief,” Davis wrote in a statement on X. “We are also praying for the survivor, whose recovery and care will remain in our thoughts.”<\/p>\n

The identities of those killed in the crash have not yet been released.<\/p>\n

While the AAIA’s preliminary reports initially indicated seven people were on board, officials are still establishing the facts of the flight manifest.<\/p>\n

Just hours before the fatal crash in North Andros, a Flamingo Air flight en route to Mayaguana was forced to turn back<\/a> to Nassau after the pilot reported a concern, according to the Ministry of Energy, Utilities and Aviation (MoET).<\/p>\n

After the aircraft landed and passengers safely deplaned, the plane caught fire on<\/a> the runway.<\/p>\n

Following the two back-to-back safety incidents<\/a>, the Civil Aviation Authority Bahamas (CAAB) temporarily suspended Flamingo Air’s Air Operator Certificate, according to MoET officials.<\/p>\n

“The suspension is a precautionary safety measure<\/a> and should not be treated as an adverse compliance action against Flamingo Air,” the agency wrote in a statement.<\/p>\n

Investigators from the AAIA and inspectors from the CAAB remain at the scene in North Andros as they work to determine what caused the Cessna 402 tragedy.<\/p>\n

Flamingo Air did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.<\/p>\n
