A 60-year-old man was killed and a 12-year-old child seriously injured on Saturday when a light aircraft crashed amid sudden high winds at an airshow near the capital Budapest, dpa reported. The victim was a member of security staff at the Dunakeszi airstrip, five kilometers north of the Hungarian capital. The 30-year-old pilot of the Zlin 142 aircraft was seriously injured, but in stable condition on the evening of the accident. A child, who was among the spectator, was also helicoptered to hospital with serious injuries. Storms and torrential rain lashed Hungary on Saturday after a week-long heat wave, leading to at least eight fatalities and causing power blackouts in several parts of the capital.
