Default WTF v. plane crash

My brother's ex wife's sister is taking flying lessons at the same school as me. i bumped into her randomly last week and was surprised to learn that she just started taking classes.

just now i get a call from my brother telling me that there was a crash and that she probably died. The instructor's body was found but they are still searching for her body. I've trained with that instructor and he's good... lot of experience and safety was important to him. This is just too fucking weird and chilling.

I don't even know what to think... the news are talking about it a bit but not enough info. they are saying that the plane hit some phone wires.and crashed but that make no sense. Phone poles are too low for a plane to hit them during flight.

i wonder how and what happened and i'm sad as fuck... we weren't close but its just weird to learn that 2 people you saw just a couple of days ago died.

Yeah. Her dad got a call from the school informing them of the situation. They didn't publish her name in the news yet but they saying a young lady in her early 20s. I know like all the student and there pretty much only her around that age. Already learning there was a fatal crash at the school I'd be a bit shaken up but that it's her is just disturbing...

Ugh. This is enough irony to make anyone's head spin. I hope you find a way to pursue your dream through all of this.

My condolences.
Don't lose sight of your goals, though.
If flying is your passion, it's worth following. :hs:
