Quote: "A plane carrying two people taking part in a memorial event to mark the 1972 Andes air disaster has crashed in Uruguay, killing one of them. The light Piper aircraft crashed in the sea during a beachside anniversary barbecue near Montevideo on Sunday. The passenger's body was found in the water on Monday. The pilot survived. In the 1972 disaster, a plane carrying a Uruguayan rugby team crashed in the Andes. The survivors were forced to eat those who had been killed in the crash. The events were dramatised in the Hollywood film Alive. Those taking part in the anniversary event on the beach watched in horror as the light aircraft plunged into the sea 400m offshore."
