The cargo plane crew members who perished in a fiery crash in Afghanistan included a man who married just two weeks ago and another who was engaged, it has been revealed.
Seven American crew members of the private cargo jet were killed on Monday when the Dubai-bound plane crashed shortly after take-off from Bagram air base near the Afghan capital of Kabul.
Heart-stopping dashcam footage of the crash hit the web hours later, showing the Boeing 747-400 climbing steadily before plummeting back to the ground in a massive explosion.
