GALVESTON: "The airplane carrying eight people that crashed into West Galveston Bay on Monday afternoon was a Mexican military medical flight approaching Scholes International Airport in heavy fog, a city official said. The downed flight was carrying two pilots and six passengers including a pediatric patient in need of burn care likely at Shriner’s Children in Galveston, which specializes in such treatments. It was tracked from General Mariano Escobedo International Airport in Monterrey, Mexico, to Scholes International Airport at Galveston on Monday evening.

Aviation tracking databases identify the aircraft associated with callsign ANX1209 as a Beechcraft King Air 350i, operated by Mexico’s Navy, Armada de México. It’s a twin-engine turboprop often used for a range of missions including transport and surveillance.

Observations from the National Weather Service indicate foggy and overcast conditions over Galveston and Galveston Bay, with dense fog and reduced visibility persisting across coastal waters and the island this afternoon."
