Pilot, passenger make miracle escape when plane crashes on busy road
A shocked pilot and passenger narrowly avoided tragedy when a small plane nosedived onto a busy road in the UK, their flight club said.
Drivers immediately got out to help the pilot and passenger, who were spotted shimmying out of the fractured plane with the help of passersby. “Two members of the Cotswold Gliding Club were taken to hospital with minor injuries to be checked on after an incident involving one of the club’s motorized gliders,” Cooper said.Mila Vukelia/SWNS
The small plane appeared to have “stalled and nosedived” before crashing, one eyewitness told Gloucestershire Live.
