Narrative:
A second light aircraft crashed on takeoff Wednesday in Botswana's Okavango Delta but all six people onboard survived unscathed, the air charter company said.

Another failed takeoff in the same area five days ago killed eight foreigners.

Delta Air manager Kagiso Senwedi told The Associated Press that the passengers - a Namibian and four French tourists with a South African pilot - are being transported by boat from Delta Camp in Botswana's remote north to Maun town.

"They are all a bit shaken, which is understandable, and did not want to fly back," he said, adding some suffered only minor injuries.

He said the company's Cessna U206G Stationair 6 II single-engine turbocharged aircraft crashed in a failed takeoff from Delta Camp's dirt airstrip Wednesday morning.

Note:
according web info A2-AID is NOT a turbocharged version.
