The beautician was broadcasting live to her fans moments before her death. A plane with two passengers caught fire in Turkey

A breathtaking video circulated on social media showing the moment a plane burned and charred after hitting a high-voltage power line.

The agonizing final words of a 22-year-old girl who was filming herself in the cockpit of the plane are heard in the clip.

It appears that the plane hit the high-pressure cable and fell to the ground, after it turned into a fireball, while the beautician Porco Saglam "Baye" was sharing the last moments of her life on the Internet in a live video moments before the plane crash.

Burcu and pilot Hakan Koksal, 54, took off from Pamukova, Sakarya Province in Turkey, where footage shows the plane walking down the runway moments before take-off.

But after a short while, when it was flying at an altitude of about 4,000 feet, the plane suddenly lost contact.

Its charred wreckage was soon found on an empty lot in Osmangazi, Bursa province.

Workers at a nearby natural gas plant told authorities of a fiery object that fell from the sky.

Search and rescue teams were sent to the scene, which found the bodies of Burcu and Hakan, who was the president of a flying club.

One of them is believed to have died directly when the plane caught fire after its wing hit the electric power line, above the Ovacá natural gas cycle power plant.


Bursa Mayor Alinur Aktas said he believed the other one fell from the plane before he died.

The authorities are investigating why the plane was flying at such a low altitude that it collided with a 380,000-volt line.

Turkish media reported that Burko, who previously ran a hairdressing salon, told her parents that morning that she was leaving home in search of a job. They were unaware that she had boarded a plane until authorities informed them of her death in a phone call.
