A PLANE crash which killed a British pilot was caused by a CROCODILE running amok in the cabin.
Chris Wilson, 39, died with 19 others when terrified passengers fleeing the reptile bolted to the front of the small aircraft, making it flip.
A survivor of the crash in the Democratic Republic of the Congo said the crocodile escaped from a traveller's large sports holdall.
Panicking passengers rushed towards the cockpit of the small turbo-prop aircraft, causing it to nosedive out of control.
It smashed into an empty house, killing first officer Chris, Belgian pilot Danny Philemotte, 62, and 18 of the 19 others aboard.
The lone survivor told investigators the croc escaped from a large sports bag in which the reptile had been hidden by a passenger who planned to sell it.
