Ultralight Drop in Northern Italy kills father and daughter


Vercelli Public Prosecolution Service investigates the causes of the accident

The fall of an ultra duration near the city of Vercelli, in Northern Italy, killed father and daughter.

Massimiliano Monticone, who was 49 years old and was a controller of air traffic, shared his passion for flight with Simona, 18 years old. The man, who lived in a couple of manferrato, was married and had another older son.

The causes of the accident are still uncertain, but it happened in a rural area between Lamporo and Livorno Ferraris. Monticone and his daughter died very shortly after the impact.

“For Ultraves, the flight plan is no longer mandatory. It is necessary to notify the competent authorities and maintain the radio contact. Yesterday was a beautiful day and, according to reports, the Montantone plane was heading towards the mountains. The accident apparently occurred during the return flight,” said Giancarlo Panelli, the airport director where he took the ultralight place, in an interview with Ansa.

Vercelli’s prosecutor opened an investigation to investigate the causes of the accident that killed father and daughter. The authorities want to determine if the ultra length has decreased due to engine failures or if it has been a human error. Another point that public ministries want to clarify is to understand who had aircraft control. .
