It was not immediately known if any of the nine people on board survived. ADVERTISEMENT Bagus Ekodanto, the local police chief, said search and rescue teams were headed to the site. Several villagers had spotted the plane's smoldering wreckage but were unable to reach it because of the rugged terrain, he said. The single-engine Pilatus Porter PC-6 aircraft was carrying several local election commission staffers and ballots to the remote village of Mulia when it went down, Ekodanto said, adding that it was not clear what caused the accident. Two crew members and seven passengers, including a child, were on board, he said. There are few roads in Papua, which occupies the western half of New Guinea, and air travel is a necessity. It is considered one of the world's most dangerous places to fly. Many areas are mountainous and prone to dangerous low clouds and sudden weather changes. A cargo plane crashed in the district of Wamena last week, killing all six people on board.
