	Two Killed In Accident At Hungarian Model Aircraft Show

	Plane Goes Into Crowd


	<http://www.aero-news.net#d#d>   <http://www.aero-news.net/#d#d>
 <http://www.aero-news.net#d#d> A married couple attending an
international model aircraft demonstration in southern Hungary Saturday
were killed when one of the planes, a model Pitts biplane, suddenly
crashed into the crowd.

	Local news agency MTI reports the two were watching the show in
Ocseny, a town about 90 miles south of the capital of Budapest.
Emergency officials told MTI the couple was from the nearby city of
Szekszard. Four others injured in the accident were taken to a hospital
there.

	It was the first time anyone in Hungary had been killed at a
model airplane show, one of the show's organizers stated.

	Chairman of the Hungarian Modelling Federation Andor Harmath
told MTI he assumed the aircraft -- which was being controlled by who
MTI described as an "experienced German operator," according to the
Associated Press -- experienced interference in the signal between its
controller and the receiver on the plane.
