kris_adams Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 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. http://www.southafricanews24.co.za/pensioner-sliced-in-two-after-being-hit-by-landing-plane-as-she-took-short-cut-across-airport-runway/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris_adams Posted April 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Ok, so I'm not sure if it was a prop or the wing, but the results were terrible nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kortopates Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
