Plane crashes near L.A One person is dead after a plane crashed near L.A. Monday. The Associated Press via TwinCities.com shared the details on April 29. The incident happened when two small planes collided midair. The pilot of one of the aircrafts died when the plane veered into the rocky ridge after the two planes collided.
The pilot of one plane died, while the pilot of the other plane was able to survive by managing a belly-flop landing of the plane on a nearby golf course. There were three people aboard that plane, while it seemed only the pilot was on the plane that crashed into the ridge. Golfers were stunned when the small aircraft landed just yards away from them. Examiner reported
Both planes involved were Cessna 172 models. Officials are still investigating what happened in the incident. Those on-board the aircraft that landed on the golf course were quite lucky, as those on-board had only minor injuries. Though there are many details yet to be uncovered, sources indicate that the plane that crashed into the ridge was on an engine test flight.
