Kelley Earnhardt ✔ @EarnhardtKelley I can confirm Dale, Amy & Isla along with his two pilots were involved in a crash in Bristol TN this afternoon. Everyone is safe and has been taken to the hospital for further evaluation. We have no further information at this time. Thank you for your understanding.

I guess “plane” is a broad enough term to include private jet. Nonetheless, as a private pilot, I would find a slightly more specific headline to be useful.

I’m glad he’s OK.

Too bad he’s not even half the race car driver his dad was.

Nonetheless, it’s always a good landing when the occupants can walk away.
All the best to the family.

They said he was not injured, so, even if he was, it’s not serious.

Both he and his wife are OK.

“I guess “plane” is a broad enough term to include private jet. Nonetheless, as a private pilot, I would find a slightly more specific headline to be useful.”

I prefer “Flying machine” or “Airship”:)

But I’m old.

The term “plane” works just fine for the headline.
