As grieving families mourn loved ones killed in a plane crash on a Taiwanese island, the chairman of TransAsia Airways has personally said sorry.<br /><br />But for many relatives of the 48 dead, Lin Ming-sheng’s apologies as he joined them at a funeral home on Penghu island are small comfort. They blame the airline for letting the turboprop plane take off on Wednesday in poor weather conditions. <br /><br />While funerals are held, search teams continue to sift through the debris. <br /><br />The weather is set to be a key factor in the inquiry after the ATR-72, carrying 58 people, crashed near the runway while trying to land in Taiwan’s Penghu archipelago. A typhoon had passed earlier in the day. <br /><br />No one on the ground was hurt. <br /><br />The remaining 10 people on board the plane survived, with injuries.
