The pilots managed to send a distress call to the Ipoh tower before the plane crashed.

A mishap during a night-flying training exercise took the life of a 52-year-old pilot, Fajim Juffa Mustafa Kamal, who succumbed to his death after the light plane that he operated crashed on Jalan Dr Nazrin Shah-Sg Rokam, near Medan Gopeng at about 8pm last night.

A team from the Perak Fire and Rescue Department was subsequently rushed to the location and proceeded to remove the two victims from the mangled plane. In another report by Free Malaysia Today, CAAM revealed that the Ipoh tower had received a mayday call from the aircraft at 8.07pm shortly after take-off.
