Pilot Dead In Los Angeles County Emergency Plane Crash Landing Could Be Called Hero

Initial reports showed only that a pilot died in an emergency landing in a parking lot – but later reports have revealed that the pilot who died in a plane crash this past weekend may have, in fact, saved several lives in his unfortunate emergency landing plane crash.Saturday the 14th, the still unidentified pilot flew a 1977 Beechcraft Bonanza registered to a David E Flotho.

For reasons unknown, the pilot made an emergency landing into a parking lot into San Gabriel, touching down on the ground successfully but then crashing into a factory wall. The plane, after hitting the factory wall, became engulfed in flames, the pilot still inside.

A very strategic maneuver by the pilot may have actually saved many lives, says reports from LA County Fire Department. The pilot was forced to land in an area that could have made his landing quite hazardous to others, yet landed in a way that was entirely safe to all bystanders – avoiding cars, a railroad sign, and area buildings.

Investigation and autopsy of the pilot’s death is ongoing as of Monday. If you also have been the victim of a plane crash, car accident, or other such injury-causing event, your best course of action is to seek advice from a lawyer.

When Los Angeles Boy Drowns, Questions Are Raised

Questions have been raised concerning a boy that drowned last week in Bel Air, an accident that some believe may have been stopped fire officials had arrived in time. The same day of the drowning accident, Los Angeles fire department enforced its decision to downsize the number of engines, closing at least one engine servicing the Bel Air area that could have reached the drowning boy faster. When the drowning accident took place, the fire department did receive calls for help. At the time, the station’s two operating fire engines were out, having left only 94 minutes prior to the call. The engine that was now called to the accident arrived in more than 10 motes, a response time that evidently was not enough to save the young toddler’s life. Bill Ramsey, a retired paramedic, said his heart had been broken since the boy deserved more, according to reports. However, the local fire department reported that it was impossible to determine whether or not the now-disabled engine would have reached the boy in time.
