Support A1+!

All 56 people on board a passenger plane that crashed in south-western Turkey are reported to have died. The plane was carrying 49 passengers and seven crew on board, the BBC reports.

Initial reports from rescue helicopter teams found no survivors.

The plane was on a domestic flight from Istanbul to the town of Isparta when it disappeared from radar screens shortly before it was due to land. The pilot had already requested permission to land when contact was lost.

The flight was operated by the privately-owned Atlasjet, a low-fare Turkish airline run by two Turkish tour operators.
