As Unique Information keeps you updated with news and other vital information that fly around the world, new information was generated few hours ago on the plane crash that took place in Taiwan. The crash happened in Taiwan's Penghu archipelago, which is close to Magong airport. The plane was expected to land on Magong airport but did not make it as it landed in buildings located in a village that is near to Magong airport in Penghu.

What was the cause of the plane crash that took place in Taiwan? The cause of the plane crash is not clearly known to any as investigation is still going on in the plane that carried 58 passengers and left ten injured while 48 of them died in the crash. But according to the report from Taiwan Media, it was suggested that the cause of the crash was Typhoon weather. Though people questioned why the plane took off when the aviation management knew that the weather was not clear enough, Jane Shan who is the director of Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA) said that nine flights travelled through the route between 14.00 and 19.00 on Wednesday which was the day the incidence occurred.

Minister of Transportation Yeh Kuang-shih of Taiwan and aviation officials also flew to the island to make more investigations on the cause of the crash. The minister stated that the plane which crashed on Wednesday night was in good state before it flew.
