Identification of UND Aviation Student Killed in Crash and Update on Crash Investigation
There seems to be a lot of small plane crashes lately
It was a suicide. Someone I know was in the air with his instructor while it was happening and heard on the radio the student saying "this life is not worth living" and shortly after they cut his radio so he and his instructor wouldn't hear it and they were instructed to detour since they were heading to that area.
Sending prayers 🙏
