Girl, 3, sole survivor of B.C. plane crash

Every so often there’s an article about a great save.  While tragic, to find a 3-yr old survivor of a plane crash is simply amazing.

I can only imagine how good it felt for the SAR Tech to drop into this scene and to discover the child alive in the wreckage.

The lone survivor of a plane crash near Golden, B.C., was a little girl who endured five hours in the wreckage, suspended upside-down in a car seat.

“When you think of what that poor little girl went through, watching the plane tumble through the woods and hanging upside down,” said rescue helicopter pilot Don McTighe, 51, Monday. “What an incredible, horrible scene.”
