Pilot crashes into in-laws' house
« on: March 06, 2007, 12:45:56 PM »
A pilot and his eight-year-old daughter were killed when their small plane crashed into his in-laws' house in the US state of Indiana, authorities said.
Eric Johnson, 47, and his daughter Emily died. A woman was in the house at the time, but she was not injured.

The incident occurred mid-morning near a southern Indiana airport. The plane had been rented from the facility.

The cause was not immediately clear but police said a preliminary investigation showed it was "an intentional act".

Taking his daughter with him?  That's beyond disgusting...


May they rest in peace, those graceful masters of the sky...

Happiness is Tomcat-Shaped.

I love the smell of jet fuel in the morning.

Yea, poor girl. I can only imagine what was going through her mind. Thought she was on a day out with her dad.
