Pilot who hit Beijing tower wrote about ending life: Chinese government
The pilot who died after crashing a small plane into Beijing's tallest skyscraper, injuring 13 people, had mental health issues and had written about suicide in his diary, authorities said Thursday. The plane crash raised questions about aviation safety in tightly secured Beijing, with the CITIC skyscraper around seven kilometres (4.3 miles) away from Zhongnanhai, the government compound which houses top Chinese leaders.
