Search and rescue teams were trying Sunday to reach the site where a Canadian waterbombing plane crashed while fighting a wildfire, according to AP. The wildfire and steep terrain kept rescue workers from reaching the crash site after the plane went down Saturday night about 100 miles (160 kilometers) northeast of Vancouver. The plane was chartered by the provincial government from Conair in Abbotsford, British Columbia, to battle wildfires about 18 kilometers (11 miles) south of Lytton. Conair had a second plane shadowing the one that crashed and was able to pinpoint the location of the site. «Witnesses reported seeing the plane drop from the sky and seeing it crash,» said Dan Moskaluk of the Royal Canadian Mounted Pollice. A spokesman for Conair said the company doesn't believe anyone survived: «There were no survivors from the accident,» said Rick Pedersen. The first rescue crew to reach the scene got within 500 meters (yards) of the crash site but had to turn back because a fire was raging through the steep terrain, Moskaluk said. As of Saturday, 318 forest fires were burning across British Columbia, with the largest covering 25 square kilometers (10 square miles). Last Thursday, a helicopter that was battling a blaze near Lillooet, about 210 miles (340 kilometers) northeast of Vancouver, crashed with two people on board. The 61-year-old pilot and the 27-year-old co-pilot were injured but survived. Air tankers along with helicopters and heavy machinery were supporting as many as 1,000 firefighters on the ground. Residents were under evacuation orders or an alert in six parts of the Kamloops area and the Cariboo region. Due to dry conditions across the region, a campfire ban extended to about 70 percent of the province, with violators facing potential fines and jail sentences.
