Story Time with Ben Owen

Some of you may know my ex-wife. She had started taking flying lessons about the time our divorce started and she got her license shortly before our divorce was final, later that same year.

Yesterday afternoon, she narrowly escaped injury in the aircraft she was piloting when she was forced to make an emergency landing in northern Indiana because
of bad weather. Some could call it a crash; an accident at the least. National Transportation Safety Board officials have issued a preliminary determination citing pilot error contributed to the accident, and
she was flying a single engine aircraft.
(File photo of Ben with unidentified
feminist.) It was a basic model, at best, in IFR (instrument flight rating) conditions while only having obtained a VFR (visual flight rating)
rating.

The absence of a post-crash fire was likely due to insufficient fuel on board. No one on the ground was injured. Photographs below were taken at the scene show the extent of damage to her aircraft.She was very lucky.


I don't care who you are, this was funny!!!!!
