Apparently the pilot whose plane crashed in Florida on Sunday who contacted air traffic controllers telling them that the plane’s windshield had imploded and that he was bleeding profusely made might have planned the whole thing. Seems he parachuted to safety at some point before the plane crashed and checked into a hotel under a fake name. Details are sketchy at present.
Sgt. Scott Haines of the Santa Rosa County, Florida, Sheriff’s Office - “All indications now are that he [the pilot] made some type of false emergency call…”
