Turkey's military says a plane used to train pilots has crashed in western Turkey, killing its two pilots.
A military statement said the SF-260D light trainer plane went down on Friday after taking off from Cigli air base near the Aegean port city of Izmir. Its wreck was discovered some 3 kilometers north of the base.
The military said an inspection was underway but gave no details on the possible cause of the crash. Last month, a Turkish Air Force cargo plane similarly crashed during a training flight in southwestern Turkey, killing two pilots and a technician on board.
