Don't cross in front of a prop

I guess this is Mooney related since the plane that hit her was a Mooney.  Serves as a constant reminder of the danger of spinning props.

Ok, so I'm not sure if it was a prop or the wing, but the results were terrible nonetheless.

Horrific! But a landing airplane is whole different scenario than a spinning prop. The article says "... the pensioner died instantly after being sliced in half by the plane’s left wing" ... while trying to cross the runway.  Not that we can rely on the accuracy of journalist. My heart goes out to the survivors including the pilot and any pax that will need to cope.
