Three Dead In Israeli GA Accident

They Were Going To France

An Israeli couple and their daughter were killed Friday flying from Tel Aviv to Paris when their GA aircraft went down in a wooded area of France.

The aircraft, a Piper PA-31 (file photo of type, right), was reportedly descending toward a small airport west of Paris. French civil aviation officials reported the pilot radioed that he was picking up ice on his wings before apparently losing control of the aircraft.

Israel's civil aviation chief, Yitzhak Raz, said weather conditions were poor at the time of the crash. He said the likely cause was ice buildup and loss of lift. "We're in contact with the French investigators. As far as we know, he was an experienced pilot who flew abroad many times," Raz added.

The victims were identified as Dov and Daphne Laromme and their 16-year-old daughter Kami. Dov was a high-tech businessman with operations in Britain, France and Israel. He and his family had reportedly just moved to Paris.
