Small Plane Crashes In Front Of Blue Angels Elementary School

July 29, 2021

A small plane crashed in front of Blue Angels Elementary School on Dog Track Road in Pensacola Thursday afternoon.

The plane went down directly in front of the school and burst into flames.

Three people that were on the aircraft were injured. They were identified as a teacher at Blue Angels Elementary School, her husband and a juvenile, but their names have not been released.

There were no injuries reported on the ground and no damage to the school or any other structures.

The single engine plane was a civilian aircraft and not military. The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating.

    What are the chances of being involved in a plane crash at the place you work? Very odd at the least.

    Channel 3 only repeats news for three days & nothing up-to-date but what the liberals wants. But, NorthEscambia News is the best!
    Prayer for fast recovery for all involved.
