A trainee pilot died in an aircraft crash in Amreli, Gujarat, after a trainer plane hit a tree and caught fire. No additional injuries were reported. Local police are investigating the cause of the crash.

Fatal Trainer Aircraft Crash in Gujarat

In Amreli, Gujarat, a trainee pilot lost his life after an aircraft crash that caused a fire in a residential area. The plane, owned by a Delhi aviation academy, was completely destroyed. Local police and fire services responded promptly, preventing further injuries.

Trainer aircraft crashes in Amreli, pilot dies

A trainee pilot died in Amreli, Gujarat, after a trainer aircraft crashed into a residential area, hitting a tree before catching fire. The plane was destroyed but no residents were injured.

A trainee pilot was killed when a trainer aircraft belonging to a private aviation academy crashed in a residential area in Gujarat's Amreli district on Tuesday afternoon and caught fire, a police official said.
The plane fell on a tree before crashing into an open plot.
The aircraft crash-landed into a residential area in the Giriya Road area of Amreli town at around 12:30 pm due to unknown reasons, killing the trainee pilot on the spot, said Amreli Superintendent of Police, Sanjay Kharat.
The pilot was flying solo. The aircraft had taken off from the Amreli airport, he added.
After it crashed near Shastri Nagar area, the plane caught fire and engulfed in flames, said Kharat.
"After taking off from the Amreli airport with a male trainee pilot, the trainer aircraft of an aviation academy, which operates from the airport, crashed into a residential area. The trainee pilot, who was flying solo, died in the crash while the aircraft was gutted in flames. No one else was injured in the accident," said Kharat.
He said a Delhi-based aviation academy provides pilot training from the Amreli airport.
The SP said local police have started the process to lodge a case of accidental death and investigation to find out the exact cause of the crash.
Four teams of local fire brigade rushed to Shastrinagar upon learning about the plane crash and resultant fire in the aircraft, said fire officer SC Gadhvi.
"Though the plane crashed into a residential area, no one else was injured because it first fell on a tree and then crashed into an open plot. The fire was eventually brought under control by our teams" he said.

An off-duty Alaska Airlines pilot appeared to hallucinate mid-flight and attempted to shut down the plane’s engine.

US pilot takes magic mushrooms, attempts to choke engines mid-flight

An off-duty Alaska Airlines pilot appeared to hallucinate mid-flight and attempted to shut down the plane&rsquo;s engine.

An off-duty Alaska Airlines pilot appeared to hallucinate mid-flight and attempted to shut down the plane&rsquo;s engine. Court documents show had consumed psilocybin &lsquo;magic mushrooms&rsquo; days before the flight.
When asked about why he attempted to shut off the engines, the pilot said he thought he was dreaming and wanted to wake up. He also claimed to be sleep-deprived.
Reports say the 44-year-old was contained by the cabin crew and arrested by law enforcement officials after the flight made an emergency landing in Portland, Oregon.
The pilot, identified as Joseph Emerson, had &ldquo;attempted to grab and pull two red fire handles that would have activated the plane's emergency fire suppression system and cut off fuel to its engines,&rdquo; the US Justice Department said.
&ldquo;During the flight's descent, Emerson tried to grab the handle of an emergency exit. A flight attendant stopped him by placing her hands on top of his,&rdquo; the statement added.
State prosecutors in Oregon filed 83 counts of attempted murder against the Alaska Airlines pilot on Tuesday just before he appeared in court, with his attorney, Noah Horst, entering not-guilty pleas on his behalf.
Federal prosecutors meanwhile charged Emerson with interfering with a flight crew, which can carry up to 20 years in prison, news agency Associated Press reported.

A Belgian-British teenager became the youngest person to fly around the world solo in a small aircraft after he landed on Wednesday in Bulgaria, where his global journey kicked off five months ago.
Mack Rutherford, who turned 17 during the trip, landed on an airstrip west of Bulgaria's capital, Sofia, to complete his task and to claim two Guinness World Records. Along with becoming the youngest person to fly around the world by himself, Rutherford is the youngest person to circumnavigate the globe in a microlight plane.
His sister, Zara, who finished her own trip global flight in January at age 19, previously held the ultralight record. Rutherford took the age record from Travis Ludlow of Britain, who was 18 when he made a solo flight around the world last year.
The record journey, which began March 23, took Rutherford through 52 countries over five continents. To set a mark recognized by the Guinness World Records, he crossed the equator twice.
Born into a family of aviators, Rutherford qualified for his pilot's license in 2020, which at the time, made him the youngest pilot in the world at the age of 15.
His solo trip flying around the world kicked off in Bulgaria because his sponsor, the web hosting company ICDSoft, is headquartered in Sofia and loaned him the plane.
Like his sister, Rutherford flew a Shark, one of the fastest ultralight aircraft in the world with a cruising speed reaching 300 kph (186 mph). Normally a two-seater, it was modified for his long journey by replacing the second seat with an extra tank.
Initially planned to take up to three months, the trip lasted longer due to several unexpected obstacles along his way, including monsoon rains, sandstorms, and extreme heat.
But most of the delays were caused by waits to obtain permits and other documents required for further flight or having to alter the scheduled route if they were rejected.
The flight took him through Africa and the Gulf region to India, China, South Korea, and Japan. He crossed the northern Pacific and landed after 10 uninterrupted hours in the air on a volcanic island near the Bering Strait.
From there, he headed to Alaska and down the West Coast of the United States to Mexico, then he headed north again along the U.S. East Coast to Canada, and across the Atlantic Ocean to Europe.
On Wednesday, a huge crowd of people had arrived at the airport to welcome Rutherford and to celebrate his achievements. Among them were the three members of his immediate family.

A massive fire, houses turned to rubble, death and destruction - this was the scene in China's Xiangyang after a fighter jet crashed during a training mission.
The incident occurred on June 9 when the aircraft crashed in a residential area. The pilot ejected safely, but one person on the ground was killed, and two were injured.
The plane which crashed was a J-7 deployed with the Chinese air force. The incident occurred near an airport in Xiangyang which lies in Hubei province.

The J-7 is a single-engine aircraft derived from the Soviet-era MiG-21. The Chengdu Aircraft Corporation produced the lightweight jet. Its maiden flight was in 1966, and it was approved as an operational aircraft in 1967.
The J-7's production ended in 2013 after around five decades. The jet has been deployed in large numbers for regional air protection, as per reports. China is also believed to have converted many J-7s into drones.
The J-7 is China's most-exported aircraft. The plane's export version F-7 was sold to around 17 countries. The importing nations included India's neighbours Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Myanmar. Many nations which bought the jets have since retired them.

Two years after the US military confirmed that these UFO videos were shot by its pilots, a subcommittee of the US House of Representatives is set to hold an open hearing on these unexplained phenomena, as per the New York Times.
Unidentified Flying Objects, or UFOs, also called unidentified aerial vehicles, or UAVs, are speculated by some conspiracy theorists to be alien ships.
The 3 videos released in 2020 showed aerial objects flying at amazing speeds through the sky, and even rotating against the wind. Navy pilots who witnessed the incidents were left shocked, confused, and awed.
The upcoming congressional hearing comes nearly a year after the release of a government report on "unidentified aerial phenomena". The report by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence focused on 144 incidents of UFO sightings, but was only able to explain one.
However, the interesting conclusion was that the objects were neither secret US technology, nor part of a "foreign collection program" or "major technological advancement by a potential adversary" according to available data.
The hearing next week will be the first open congressional hearing on UAVs in over 50 years. The House Intelligence Committee&rsquo;s subcommittee on counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and counterproliferation will receive testimonies from two top defence intelligence officials.

Two stunt pilots decided to go on an adventure, named plane swap on Sunday. This happened for the first time in the world. But the adventure failed as it wasn't went as it was planned by the pilots, named Andy Farrington and Luke Aikins. Both pilots are part of the Red Bull Air Force Aviation crew.As per the plan, pilots were supposed to jump to the opposite plane and take control of that chopper, but unfortunately, it ended up in a tragedy. The moment Farrington climbed from the aircraft, it started losing control and left him with only one option to use a parachute so he can land safely. On the other hand, Aikins managed to complete the stunt successfully. However, no injury has been reported. On its website, Red Bull had said that the skydivers would attempt to switch as they dove toward the ground. However, things backfired in the skies, sending one plane into a tailspin before crashing to the ground in Arizona. The incident took place in the US state of Arizona.

 Videos emerged of a Red Bull-sponsored stunt going wrong on April 24. The stunt involved two pilots jumping out of their planes and switching aircraft while being airborne. However, Andy Farrington and Luke Aikins' plane swap went wrong in the final attempt. While Aikins managed to successfully complete his part of the stunt, Farrington was not so lucky. One of the planes went into a tailspin, eventually crashing, and Farrington had to descend to earth using a parachute. The plane crashed near Eloy, which lies southeast of Phoenix in Arizona.
Authorities said they were investigating the crash. Meanwhile, the Federal Aviation Administration said that it had denied the organisers' request for an exemption from regulations regarding safe operation of airplanes.
