Bringing down the retrieved remains of the four Cessna plane crash victims along Mayon Volcano's steep slopes may take another two or three days, Camalig Mayor Caloy Baldo says.
Responders are having difficulty lowering the retrieved remains of the four Cessna plane crash victims in Albay due to bad weather conditions and Mayon Volcano's treacherous terrain, Camalig Mayor Caloy Baldo said Sunday.
The incident management team has suggested for 20 responders to relay down each body for 200 to 300 meters, according to the local chief executive. Aerial rescue teams will then collect the bodies as soon as they find a safe landing area. "More or less 650 brave and decisive individuals are already involved in what is considered to be one of Albay's greatest challenges," he said.
