A flight instructor and student were killed when their small, single-engine plane crashed between Bowling Green and Owensboro last week. Investigators say a severe thunderstorm was in the area at the time. Sean Howard is the chief flight instructor at Eastern Kentucky University’s Aviation program. He said there are some things pilots just shouldn’t do.
“You absolutely do not fly into thunderstorms. And that's what we are taught. And that's what we teach. That is disastrous. So you know, you just don't do that.”
