Yesterday afternoon I got a phone call, that she narrowly escaped injury in the aircraft she was piloting. Seems she was forced to make an emergency landing inAlabama because of bad weather. Thank God the kids weren't with her.
The FAA issued a preliminary report, citing pilot error: She</span><font face="Arial"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 10pt; color: purple; font-family: Arial"> </span></font></font></font><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 24pt; color: purple; font-family: Arial">was flying a single engine aircraft in IFR (instrument flight rating) conditions while only having obtained a VFR (visual flight rating).
The absence of a post-crash fire was likely due to insufficient fuel on board. No one on the ground was injured.
Check below to see what she wasflying at the time the crash....
She was really lucky.</span></font></p>
