In a statement to Action News, the Skydive Cross Keys, the company that leases the aircraft, says the issues began around 3,000 feet in the air.

At least 11 people were injured — three of them seriously — after a small skydiving plane crashed early Wednesday evening at Cross Keys Airport in Gloucester County, officials said. The Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement that a Cessna 208B “went off the runway while departing” the airport around 5:30 p.

The plane, a Cessna 208B, had engine trouble minutes after taking off from a small airport in Gloucester County, officials said. Three people were critically injured.
