Video: Passenger plane crashes in Pakistan killing all onboard The Bhoja Airline flight from Karachi, believed to be carrying 127 passengers and crew, came down six miles short of the airport, according to local reports. Officials said a violent storm had been lashing parts of Islamabad close to the airport when the crash happened. Local television in Pakistan showed search and rescue teams scouring charred wreckage as crowds of anxious friends and family queue-up at the airline's information desk.
