My ex-wife, Kathleen ... had started taking flying lessons about the time our divorce started (1999) and got her license shortly before our divorce was final.

Recently, she narrowly escaped injury in the aircraft she was piloting when she was forced to make an emergency landing in a garden in town because of bad weather and crashed.

The absence of a post-crash fire was likely due to insufficient fuel on board. Thankfully, no one on the ground was injured.

This photograph was taken at the scene and shows the extent of damage to her aircraft.



She was very, very lucky. . . . . .
