There are new details about how two people managed to escape the flames following a small plane crash in Lindenhurst on Sunday. GusoffTV spoke exclusively to the good Samaritan who was first at the tragic scene.
"I think it will be always in my mind. I will never forget," Marusz Czartorykski said."There was fire everywhere.""First, I grabbed the pilot, which was a young man. He was asking me, 'Please help me. Please help me,'" Czartorykski said.Czartorykski then saw a woman in the burning wreckage.
"She is going die inside the fire, so I pull her out. I took her to a safe place. She was asking, 'Where's my mom? Where's my mom?'" he said.We now know that was Reeva Gupta of Pennsylvania. Her 63-year-old mother, Roma, of New Jersey, didn't survive.
"He had multiple certifications, not only as a private pilot, then he received his commercial training license. He is a certified flight instructor," Dekajlo said. According to colleagues raising money for the Gupta family, flight lessons were a long-standing wish of theirs. They called Reeva, a physician's assistant, an incredible, caring, selfless young woman. She is now fighting for her life."If I don't pull them out, they will die," he said.
The flight school's attorney said the plane was up to date on all inspections, including one in January and another just a week ago.
