The video of the incident shows the small aircraft gradually descending toward an airstrip.

However, instead of executing the landing the aircraft moves away from the airstrip and can be seen flying over public roads.

Toward, the end of the video the camera shows the cockpit of the aircraft and later shows the moment of impact during the crash.

The passenger injured in the incident has been identified as Kush Singh from Patna, Bihar.

The man was travelling to his uncle Pawan Singh's home in Dhanbad.

The boy had taken a joyride in a glider operated by a private firm from the Barwadda airport.
