Lucky, yes; but my prayers are up for her and the others; her parents may have been among those killed.

“survives fatal plane crash”

What?


I had a friend, Richard, who was particularly absent-minded.

Someone said, “Richard is not here today, and always will be.”

Her parent(s) may have protected her with their bodies, allowing her to survive. Just a guess, but it’s what parents might do.

The weather throughout that whole region is low IFR right around freezing. Not optimal weather for light civil, even a twin.

Weird! A 7yo walks approximately 30 minutes. Phones police. Searchers look for 2 hours?

Lead story on Fox ‘n Friends this morning.

So sad.

She is the lone survivor.

Brave little girl.

Parents and 9 year old sister and a cousin dead.

Mr. GG2 (a pilot) said that the Saratoga has a one person jump seat in the very back and the cabin slopes slightly downward back there. So the force of the crash even if it pushed all the seats back would not have hit that jump seat. Maybe the little girl was in that seat. That’s his speculation.
