Once the pilot started descending towards the ground, he did everything he could to avoid crashing into homes and, instead, crashed into a wooded area - deliberately avoiding houses, Christian Hartley said, Houston, Alaska's fire chief.
Multiple people saw the plane going down and immediately went to the scene in snowmachines and ATVs, Houston, Alaska's fire chief saidANCHORAGE, Alaska - The fire chief of Houston, Alaska, is commending the pilot of a small plane that crashed Thursday near a subdivision. The plane crashed at about 4:30 p.m. near the Dilley Estates subdivision, Christian Hartley said, Houston’s fire chief. The pilot and a passenger suffered minor injuries.
“It’s not just the residents of Houston,” Hartley said. “Houston is just like real Alaska. If you want to know where the real Alaskans are, they’re the people out there running to help others that need help. They see something that needs fixed, they just focus on fixing it. They don’t wait for someone else to come. They’re there, they’re going to fix it, and all of those residents in that subdivision came down to help as much as they could and anyway they could.
