NICOSIA (Reuters) - A small aircraft crashed into a residential area near a British military base in Cyprus on Saturday morning, police and witnesses said.

There were no immediate reports of casualties.

Witnesses said at least one home was ablaze in the village of Kolossi, which is on the southern coast of the island some 5 km (3 miles) east of the Royal Air Force base of Akrotiri.

Really something happened to the planes all around the world :(
I was not scared to fly before but now I would not like to go somewhere with a plane, however, I understand that it's the most safe transport.
