Two hurt in small plane crash at East Hampton Airport

A two-seater plane crashed at East Hampton Airport at roughly 5:30 p.m. Sunday with two occupants being airlifted to a local hospital with burns, sources told The Post.

The small plane burst into flames after ending up in the woods near the small, but busy, facility as local emergency crews rushed to the scene to douse the flames and to transport the injured.

The unidentified victims were departing from the airport at the time of the crash, sources said.

The facility was temporarily closed during the busy Sunday evening rush of planes and helicopters departing the East End.
