A small plane carrying Seventh-day Adventist Church officials crashed soon after taking off from an airport in a rural, mountainous area, killing five of the six people on board.
The only survivor, co-pilot Jim Huff, walked away from the crash site and was taken to a Chattanooga hospital, Sheriff John Cupp said.
The twin-engine Cessna 421 crashed, caught fire and broke apart in a thicket of trees about 1 1/2 miles north of the Collegedale Municipal Airport.
