Experimental aircraft crash sends one to local hospital. McCracken County, Kentucky.



Witnesses say the single engine experimental aircraft took off just about a half mile from the crash site. We're told the engine stalled and died soon after take off. The pilot of the plane walked away unharmed, but one passenger was taken to a local hospital with minor injuries. people living near the crash site say, it could have been much worse.

Nick Clark said, "When his wing tip hit the mailbox that's what made the noise and we came outside. It's better to hit the ditch or land in a soft field than to hit the power lines, cause if you hit the power lines your definitely going to be in big trouble."
